Things you may not know about Baruragaru(Info comes from wikiwiki.jp, Pike-The-Ninja, and afew MHF-G wikis and blogs)

Baruragaru is a newly discovered Leviathan and was never known/was unknown to the Guild until recently.

It is believed to be a non-native species/invasive species from the sea by the Guild.

Unlike other Leviathans, it can actually use its limbs to fight besides using them to dig underground and swim.

The odd fins on Baruragaru's forelimbs are actually covered in a bunch of weird little tentacles small as very fine hairs(Even more fine from G-rank Baru) and have a strange way of repeling water and soil. It is also insulated and completely electric current proof.

It has long vampire like tusk on its jaws but they don't seem to be used for anything, atleast from what I found.

A Baruragaru's main weapon is its tongue, which it uses to whip and skillfully hit enemys around it.

Baruragaru prefers areas with water sources and were first seen in the Swamp but later on appearing in the Jungle and the Desert.

Baruragaru keeps itself moist by using water and it seems to produce a strange mucus/slime on its body to hold in moisture in its skin. They usually go underground to gain more moisture(Atleast in the Swamp)while underground they produce this slime/mucus. At times, they may even use water they gain to fight with water-based attacks.

Baruragaru's body has a strange sometimes thick fluid where after the organ that seperates poison is used, the poison is moved to the fluids where it gets used as a weapon. Its said it responds to a variety of chemicals and gets used by people as a catalyst now.

Baruragaru sucks the blood of its prey with it tongue, not only as a meal but also for defense and a way to defend themselves. When they suck the blood of their prey, their changes color, on the side of their body.

It is believed that by sucking the blood of toxic prey, they gain the toxins for themselves and by using the actual blood of prey, they can decrease the sharpness of weapons.

Baruragarus are believed to be war-like monsters and will attack hunters on sight and its usually found sucking the blood of an unfortunate creature that it comes across. Its most likely hostile to hunters because it sees them as a threat.

Baru's Scales are said to be soft along with his skin being stretchy.

Baruragaru has a organ that seperates stuff like poison in the blood it drinks so it won't die from eating creatures like Iodrome.

So far, it seems that some populations of monsters have decreased in some areas.

Finally, its unknown why they have appeared in some areas very recently(People already have afew theorys on it).
