Forests

"Forests" are wooded areas with high levels of vegetation. Forests are know for having very mild and favorable weather. Forests come in different varieties, including hilly and submerged..

Ecosystem
Inhabitants of the hilly forest areas include: Velociprey, Velocidrome, Kelbi, Mosswine, Bullfango, and the herbivorous Aptonoth. Aptonoth tend to roam in the open field areas, while Kelbi and Mosswine tend to root around in the more forested areas. Velociprey packs stalk both the forests and plains of this region. The forests are also a good location for Felyne and Melynx to set up a colony. The higher areas can get quite craggy, and contain small caves which are used by larger monsters as a nest.

The submerged version of the forest is also very wooded, but some sections can be very watery. This kind of forest is home to aquatic creatures such as Rudorosu, Chanagaburu, and occasionally the fierce Lagiacrus. The dry areas are inhabited by the herbivores one would typically find in a forest, including Kelbi and Aptonoth. Like the hilly forests, the submerged forest has no lack of vegetation and variety of wildlife. Aptonoth graze and drink at the rivers, while noisy groups of Rudorosu inhabit the deeper water, lead by a Roarudorosu. Small pockets of Felyne and Melynx have managed to make a living here as well. There is also a small, semi-flooded cave where some monsters like to go to rest.

Resources
Forests are filled with all kinds of resources, included berries, nuts, mushrooms and herbs. They contain a few mining nodes, and are teaming with insects. Occasionally, hunters can find honey.
