Things you may not know about the Shogun Ceanataur and the Terra Shogun Ceanataur (Sources are the same as above)

Firstly, Shoguns are highly adaptable creatures and are believed to be able to survive in areas that Daimyos can(Tide Island is one example). Despite this they are found in harsher enviroments.

They prefer areas with dark caves like the Swamps.

Shoguns are pretty quite and prefer to keep to themselves but when threaten they turn into killers.

The sickles stay hidden until its angered and it feels it needs to use them.

Shoguns lack the defense of Daimyos but make up for by having a good offense and weapons. From this lighter armor, it seems they are faster than your normal Daimyo.

Water it uses it shoots from its posture.

Secretly, some hunters are sent to hunt them due to their meat being a favorite food for some people but finding hunters willing to get their meat is rare.

As they get older, their venom glands lose their function and most don't even use them anymore but some individuals have been found using them(The HC Shoguns).

Just like the Plum Daimyo, the Terra Shogun is a variant of Shogun with unusal feeding habits that changed its color to this magma red.

Terra Shoguns will always look for a Monster Skull instead of a strange shell, possibly due to their color. They are usually found wearing Black Gravios Skulls but will wear other types of skulls.

A Terra Shogun's armor is harder than a normal Shogun's but is sometimes described to be weak in some ways.
