User blog comment:Lord Loss/Monster Hunter Theory... Blog/@comment-74.193.207.108-20120905211012

Here is a new theory of mine concerning the White Fatalis elder dragons. The first thing I thought of when recently looking at the creature was how in the hell would they obtain their food. On the ground those glowing white bodies would alert potential prey a mile away and the fatalis dragons aren't exactly fast so chasing prey on the ground definitely wouldn't work. But then I realized something when looking through my Monster Hunter Illustrations book when I saw the picture of a rathalos attacking a bird of prey as large as itself. Since white fatalis easily stick out on the ground I believe that they are mostly aerial hunters that blend in with the white clouds to sneak attack large flying creatures like the giant bird of prey or even rath wyverns for food.
