NOTES:
- Avepoda is simply called "Bird Feet" in most translations.
- "Old World Raptors" and "New World Raptors" are not named as such in the official phylogeny, but they are classified in groups as shown in the video.
- All species names are made up.
- Whenever I say "native tongue", I mean the original japanese names and terms.
- Boggi wasn't included because a) we don't know where he'd go yet (probably Dog Wyvern) and b) he has no large monster equivalent. I didn't include Barnos/Mernos in the Flying Wyverns video either for that same reason.

What about gargwa
You forgot GARGWA
Barnos and Mernos are classed as Wingdrakes (On the Wiki) so I understand why they show up in the flying wyvern video. But Both Boggi and Gargwa are both strange Bird Wyverns with Gargaw being the main standout so I understand but just keep it up, these videos are great with or without Gargwa
Wait where does great Apypos fit in the family tree?
@@logr12dragonknight55 it would probably be a dog syvenr
I'm still a massive fan that Yian Garuga's survival strategy is "be so batshit aggressive and crazy that you aren't worth making a meal of."
I call yian garuga the honey badger of bird wyverns
@@user-kt6bq6di2qIt’s a honey badger missed with a goose lol.
Not even a mention of the Gargwa...
They may be small monsters, but they're Bird Wyverns too!
Just realized that (True) Bird Wyverns are most likely my favorite type of monsters
Edit: I did not know that Izuchi snuggle with eachother. That's adorable
Finally a video about the best monster of them all: Great Jaggi
you know whats funny is that a lot of my favorite monsters are from tri, like the Great Jaggy, Agnaktor, Zinogre, Alatreon, Dire Miralis, and Qurupeco
Agreed
Agree
@@ultra5051 Third Gen was the best in terms of monster design
Bro, imagine a game where you're back in time and fight the ancestors of all the monsters, including ones that are completely new due to some species never left bones of their existence.
What about a game in a preserved hidden region that still contains said prehistoric monster species?
@@TrueSTARbornFall yeah they could do this especially with the New World having unexplored regions
@@theofficialtaylorroachyout6269this one is a facinating idea. Imagine the more deeper you go to the new world the more prehistoric the creature gets. Interesting.
give me an Anomolocaris monster
Biology at school: I sleep
Fake MH biology: real sh*t
This is so relatable, I don’t even pay much attention in biology, but I can identify all aspects of MH and all of its monster species
*sad Boggi noises*
Lmao beat me to it
Yeah, Gargwa was nowhere to be found either...
But as far as I’m aware he covered every bird wyverns from the mainline with the exception of Gargwa and Boggi, also Gargoldria (that shoebill bird that appears in the citadel which is classified as a bird wyvern)
What’s A Boggi * Is It A Baggi? *
@@andrewtoews5050 No, they’re the small bird wyverns that were added to mhr with sunbreak. They live exclusively in the citadel.
They most likely would have been in the Dog Wyvern superfamily although they currently lack an “alpha” representative
One interesting thing is the Wroggis weakness to ice.
The cold would cause the liquid poison in their poison sacs to freeze, which could cause internal damage or could even have a Wroggis repsiratory system blocked, making them suffocate.
Great follow-up to the last video, cleared up my confusion with the raptors and dog wyvern.
Can't wait to see what family you cover next in this series.

@@ledfolf7193 early release for Patreons and members.
Loved this video. Out of all of the bird wyvern, the Izuchi family is my favorite. I love their pack tactics, their look, and personal weapon. Not to mention the weapons and armor you can make from it look pretty cool too lol.
Hell yeah! I really love this series I hope you will continue to do more! This type of lore vid is so fascinating and fun to watch thank you!
Awesome video. Glad you mentioned the translation differences between the -dromes and the greats in a believable way to the Monster Hunter story.
I love that nod to the Japanese naming conventions for the dog wyverns! It would make sense in universe with how many different cultural groups there are who likely have their own linguistic paths and the way communication isn't exactly instant between major guild centers and these villages.
As a bonus fact, Korean translations still call them Dos(u) too, I got a kick out of it when I was playing 4u on my Korean cart.
If through the bird wyvern family is considered to be the weakest family of monster (not include herbivores and bugs), i consider them also the most versatile one, that can be found eny where. Every biome got 1 or 2 bird wyverns as basis, and sometimes even some big shots like garuga or malfestio. Also liked the part when not all got the same strategy, some got bigger numbers some got better team work, some just go chaotic ape-shit(maccao and garuga xd). I wish for some true bird wyvern that fly as a pack, and some big lone raptors for high/master rank.
I would love to see Leviathans next!
I find it odd how ecology videos such as this don't go into how the Jaggi also produced a specific female-only counterpart, the Jaggia.
i think its because sexual dimorphism is a concept that has been touched so much, that people usually dont bother to explain it.
Its my only nitpick to this video lol
I am so excited! Bird Wyverns are my favorite group of monsters especially the Raptors! They may not be apex predators but they often do a great job as mesopredators and due to their higher population are arguably more successful than most other monster groups.
finally the Izuchi's time to shine my fav bird wyvern
ALWAYS UP FOR A NEW OCEANIZ VIDEO
These videos are a blessing for any monster hunter fan. Thank you!
I guess this was made before the discovery of the Citadel region's Boggi, another breed of Dog Wyvern. So far, a Great Boggi hasn't been discovered.
Physically, they're yellow-brown, lightly-spotted bird wyverns that are darker, nearly black, on their backs, the back half of their tail, and extremities. They have patches of scraggly furlike feathers on their tail and on their back between their hips, and a small crest between the shoulderblades. Their eyes are large and yellow, and mildly luminescent in the dark, hinting at good night vision and are set in deep, dark-colored depressions surrounding their eyesockets, giving them a wide field of view. They have overdeveloped front teeth, particularly their lower tusks, which prevent them from closing their mouths entirely. Their forelegs are well-developed for bird wyverns, rivaling Maccao. They do have head-crests, which resemble ears that are midway between a bat and a dog.
These creatures look very ungainly, even dopey due to their penchant for leaving their tongues hanging out of their mouths as a means of cooling themselves. They are, however, much like other dog wyverns, pack-hunters and extremely social. Often they'll gather on short cliffs overlooking the pathways that lead throughout the forest and swamp areas of the Citadel, and jump down on unsuspecting targets below. They don't have many abilities, but they do use their claws as well as their jaws in combat, and can be surprisingly sturdy for a small dog wyvern. This resilience, combined with their ambush-hunting strategies and almost gremlin-like desire to pick fights and mess with other creatures, make Boggi perennial nuisances in the Citadel area. They are cowardly, however, and tend to bail the moment potential prey puts up a fight, or when bigger monsters show up.
Boggi have an opportunistic and vicious streak - if a large monster is toppled in an area where Boggi are watching the fight, the Boggi will rush in and begin clawing and biting at it. When doing this, they're so overcome by bloodlust at seeing a vulnerable creature that they ignore their usual cowardice, and even ignore softer targets; they'll even do this if other large monsters are present. I found this out by watching them swarm a Tigrex I'd downed via Wyvern Riding.
Let’s go, finally a video on the best class of wyvern
YESSSSS, I love these types of videos sm
Love your videos? Keep them coming! ❤❤❤
Yooo a 29 minute and 21 second video about Great Jaggi!
Awesome!
I wonder if you’ll do a documentary on leviathans in Monster Hunter.
I feel like bird wyverns are as related to each other as thought
The runner type bird wyverns could be related to brutes,the lader evolving to have stronger jaws and heavier builds
Flying birds are related to wind drakes and flying wyverns,originating as predatory wind drakes,growing into stronger and stronger species until bird and flying wyverns where made
Love the new video !! Just one question where's the love for the new boggi?? But in all seriousness where would it fit in the family??
Great video as always :)
Just a quick note though, `Superfamily` seems to be mis-spelled in the individual species block. Not a huge deal, but now that I've noticed it, it kind of sticks out.
Thanks!
Great Jaggi video! Hells yeah
Something I am curious about is the extreme morphologic variation in flyings bird wyverns such as the 4 completely different types of wings, being 1st gen wings, 3rd gen wings, 4th gen wings and redesigned 1st gen wings. I personally would like to see future and old flying bird wyverns unified in the 4th gen malfestian morphology with broad tails and feathered wings. They have updated the designs of flying bird wyverns before, with world giving Yian Garuga getting the redesigned 1st gen wings.
14:41 Django Dodgebolt spotted! He's as beautiful as the day we lost him
I'm so happy I woke up to this ❤
What about the Boggi :')
It's was really interesting to look at phylogenetic tree of bird wyverns
Just had a thought. What if the Gypceros evolved his flash ability as a defense against one of its other major predators, the Nerscylla.
Aw I was hoping a tongue-in-cheek nod towards Aknosom's bizarre turf war with Magnamalo ahaha
U forgot about Boggi
Nice vid
Bro… the craziest documentary in terms of sheer length and information to break down would be either a flying Wyvern one or an Elder Dragon one.
Either way one of those documentaries would be godsend to listen too.
I’m currently in college and I actually listen to these while I’m at work or working on an assignment.
I actually already did a video on Flying Wyverns in this style :D
czcams.com/video/SWoUot_igFI/video.html
I can’t wait for the next history lesson, if possible, would it be possible for the next video to be about fang beasts since from what I remember, they are one of the only few, if not, the only monster found that involves apes
Question: are you planning a video about the Lynians sometime in the future? Our best hunting buddies (sorry doggies) deserve a deep dive
...I just want to watch cat videos, alright?
Thanks.
On this, how did True Bird Wyverns develop membranous wings like Flying Wyverns if Iguruibisu, their ancestor, had feathered wings like Birds instead?
Evolution do be funky sometimes. Some of the TBWs also had feathered wings, but not all of them
there is a fossil of a dinosaur that literally looks like a wyern. It has bat like front limbs and its coated with feathers... is soooo weird... its called Yi qui, weird name also jaja
@@kinsan89Wait which ones have feathered wings? From the groups shown here in True Bird Wyverns, all of them have membranous wings
@@xuanluu4873 Pukei and Malefestio at least, can't remember if Hypnocatrice too
@@xuanluu4873 wait I think I was misinterpreting the comment. They HAVE feathers, but not feathered wings (except maybe Malfestio)
Also I can't spell well apparently, my bad lol
I never noticed that the Izuchi snuggle😊
I think jaggia and pukei-pukei are cute.
Always been curious as why 'Dog' wyvern was the named used for the group. Cause they definitely don't look like canines.... Is it cause of the barking/howling roars?
I genuinely have no idea. Maybe their more obvious social behavior?
That's what I've always thought. In comparison to older raptors, that vocalize through screeches like birds, the dog wyverns do this through barks, howls, and whimpers.
Most dog wyverns also lack the beak that makes up most bird wyverns. Jaggis, Baggis, and Izuchi also have fur on their bodies.
I always assumed it has to do with their more pack like behavior when compared to other wyverns
These documentaries should be included in the game series.
I like to imagine that one kid in class that arrogantly says they don't need to do homework bc they just that good and is the one that accidentally attacks a Garuga bc they didn't study
So, quick (and dumb) question: Considering Pukei-Pukei has a very similar body-plan to Paolumu, what is the exact element that boxes each of them into their correspondent clades?
There’s not mention for the Jaggia?
I wish that we will get something similar to macao in the future but with more inspirations from tree kangaroos.
Thanks for watching?! Thank you for making these vids
FINALLYYYYYY
I'm guessing the Boggi arent well known/researched enough to be part of this yet? Cause all i know about em is they belong to the Dog Wyverns and thats pretty much it
What about those weird bird wyverns boggis?
What about the dog face one that's located in citadel
The paolumu is very confusing, because it has the body of the Pukei Pukei, the ears of the yians and does not appear to be a bird wyvern
Im still bitter that Rise has Jaggi and Jaggia, but no Great Jaggi, easily my favorite Bird Wyvern
I noticed a lot of convergent evolution between the runner wyverns. I'm guessing this is a result of their flightlessness not allowing a single species to occupy similar environments at the other side of the continent. Thus the local species evolve to fill the niche
Looking very good animation and storytelling very well done also the monster hunter video 👍
Great izuchi are actually larger than great baggi
Gosh, I knew the Iodrome and Ioprey had poison, but I never knew they had poison on their skin and bones.
That’s just overkill
"Ear birds poses weaker fire sac compared to flying wyverns"
*burned by scarred yian garuga flame machine gun*
Still find it kinda funny how drome and great are the same word in the japanese version of monhun.
*BIRD UP*
In which family does Great Girros, Royal Ludroth and Great Jagras fall?
Girros and Jagras are Fanged Wyverns
Ludroth is a Leviathan
But aren't yian garuga is an old kutku?
Fs in chat for my boy Boggi
Based Great Jaggi
Bring back the Wroggi armor
I kinda miss Great Jaggi to be honest. He was a punching bag but he was THE punching bag. Also it makes no sense for other games to have jaggis and jaggia but no great jaggi. Same for stuff like velociprey and no velocidrome
So Gia and Veloci are basically convergent evolutions
Divergent, convergent would be two unrelated beigns evolving to look similar
21:05 I thought you said they had no scales?
LMAO thats a big oopsie on my part, good catch!
@@Oceaniz It's nothing XD
Miss the mha videos
*10 MINUTES AGO WHAT THE FU-*
Yeah Boggi doesn't exist, they are only in our fantasy XD
Bird wyverns are related to dinosaurs and dragons
I bet they’re hiding great boggi for the next monster hunter, he’s too strong for us rn 🗿
Why boggi was skip in this video they are dog wyvern.
Wait Wyverns are dinosaurs or is there smth else in mh lore
seriously I need answers about the saurischian classification of them
Jaggi time bby let's go
"Izuchi play"
Way to make be feel awful about killing these guys
your monster hunter series has been a massive inspiration for creating a fictional story for NaNoWriMo! thank you for all your hard work 💕
Qurupeco is the best bird wyvern, even if he calls deviljhos from time to time
13:53 that Pokei Pokei and Mushroom action 😂
Thank you for your hard work, we all appreciate it. You’re an amazing, incredible, wonderful, and awesome person. ☺️😊😄😃🤩😍 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
BIRDS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hunt em down
Great video, although your genus and species names don't match up :)
Why are they called "Dog" Wyverns??
species endemic to the new world should have been kept to the new world
rise breaks too many rules with this. Not saying rise is bad it's just really confusing that so many things from the new world suddenly appeared in the old world.
Imagine:
Great Veloci
Great Gia
Great Gen
Great Io
Jaggidrome
Baggidrome
Wroggidrome
Izuchisdrome
Jagrasdrome
I never understood why they were called bird wyverns considering 90% of them a raptors
You forgot the Boggi.
Jaggia making me hunting unwise.
Classifying Pukei-Pukei as a bird always infuriated me because it doesn't look like a bird and jumbles up the kind of Diogenes logic as what makes a bird. The only physical features that really distinguish it as a bird are its feathers and that it could fly, although flight is something not all bird wyverns are able to do. Its mouth isn't beak-like. It has a tongue that's long and frog-like, a feature not seen in any other bird wyverns. But also, say for example, Bishaten has feathers and a beak while also being able to fly, on paper that makes it more of a bird than Pukei. But there are also bird wyverns that don't have feathers. Another unique feature of Pukei is that it's the only bird wyvern whose tail can be severed (at least to my knowledge; some bird wyverns tails can be broken, but as far as I know Pukei is the only ones that can be cut clean off). Perhaps Pukei can be classified as some part of ancestral branch of the family tree, something that split off from a common ancestor of most other bird wyverns, long before most other bird wyverns, and never really succeeded or diversified enough to propagate itself in the Old World while just barely eking out a place in the New World. It's like trying to justify why the real-life Kiwi is a bird when it has so many features that say otherwise; it can't fly and its wings are so small they just barely classify as such, it has feathers that are more like hair, its eggs are so large and stay in it for so long they might as well just be giving live birth, it has nostrils on the end of its beak. Pukei-Pukei may be considered a bird, but I think it's wrong, so I've chosen to ignore it.
I personally consider Pukei-Pukei as a relative of cave wyverns, cave wyverns are the only monsters with an opening on the end of their tails, that isn't the kind of morphology that is likely to be converged on so them being closely related is the only reasonable option. Feather like structures are infinitely more likely to convergently evolve then having its digestive/reproductive tract end at the tip of its tail.
How do you accidentally mistake a Garuda with a kut kut. Evidently color blindness depth
I would assume it has to do with people hearing descriptions of what they look, like but never actually seeing either one.
True Bird wyvern, twolegs, & ears? Must be a kut ku.
You should keep in mind, in the context of the world people might not have seen them not us.
Most people in the world of monster Hunter ironically aren't actually monster hunters. They're just dudes named... Jeff or something.
