Adrovetus

Adrovetus (ハトナス, Hatonasu) are Bird Wyverns.

Physiology
Adrovetus resembles a large pigeon or dove of some sort. Its body has white scales with brown steaks on its ventral region. Three thick, gray ridges cover the top of its head, and its beak is stout and conical. It has brown legs with five toes and black talons on its feet. While its body is scaly, its wings are covered in brilliant red feathers. Its tail is long, flattened, and ends in a heart-shaped structure.

Abilities
Adrovetus is capable of setting fire to its wings and launch flaming feathers at foes. It does so by secreting a flammable oil. It can also coat enemies with these oil by striking them with its wings, and the oil eventually causes the enemy to burst into flames. Adrovetus has corrosive saliva that reacts to extreme heat by exploding, so it often uses its flaming feathers alongside its explosive saliva to seriously injure opponents.

Taxonomy
Adrovetus are dove-like Bird Wyverns.
 * Order: Saurischia
 * Suborder: Bird Feet
 * Infraorder: Bird Wyvern
 * Family: Adrovetus

Habitat Range
Adrovetus are hardy creatures, living in tropical, arid, and volcanic areas. Some of their known habitats are the Primal Forest, the Sandy Plains, and the Volcanic Hollow.

Ecological Niche
Adrovetus are omnivorous, feeding on seeds, nuts, fruits, and carrion. They have to live alongside more dangerous predators such as Yian Garuga, Raiquilas, Malfestio, Rathian, Rathalos, Nibelsnarf, Agnaktor, Brachydios, and Glavenus.

Biological Adaptations
Adrovetus's wings produce flammable oils, allowing it to light its wings on fire with quick, sudden movements. After doing so, it can launch flaming feathers to deter predators. The feathers themselves are fireproof and can burn indefinitely until the fire is put out. Adrovetus's saliva is made from digestive fluids, so it has corrosive properties. It also has explosive properties, reacting violently when exposed to extreme temperatures. Its saliva is similar to gasoline in this regard. Because of this, it likes to cover enemies in its saliva and then shoot its fiery feathers at them, causing an explosion. Adrovetus has a stout, conical beak adapted for eating nuts and fruits,

Behavior
Adrovetus are intelligent and curious creatures. They are not inherently aggressive but will viciously fight back against anything that threatens them. While they mostly prey on nuts, fruits, and seeds, some individuals are known to prey almost exclusively on insects and carrion.
