Monsters (モンスター, monsutā) are almost every creature that is not a human or a wyverian (with the exception of Lynians) and the central aspect of the Monster Hunter series. Many look and behave like animals, but some of them possess strange powers and abilities that can make them pose a challenge to any hunter. Monsters provide materials, success, fame and glory as hunting them progresses the hunter through the game.
