User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-4639789-20120308191341/@comment-1011548-20120310094020

Magical glowing sci-fi portals has absolutely no evidence to support it, as far as I can tell.

This leaves us with the options of 'Cover your hands and eyes until this baffling mechanic introduced by a clearly drug-addled Capcom no longer exists' (my personal favourite) or speculating that the Guild pays for the import of captured monsters as practice for lazy hunters. The latter seems a bit unlikely but is by no means impossible.

There is a bit of ore scattered around the Deserted Island, but way less than at the Volcano. Coupled with the huge temperature difference, my guess is that Uragaan/Subspecies probably wouldn't survive there very long.
