Revealed Information

 * Gustarnivore  is a Crocodile like Leviathan, and a native to the Revalius Region.
 * This Leviathan is more like a crocodile in build, compared to other leviathans, as it has a long, strong tail,, short neck, large head, and strong jaws.
 * It is said to be either a "Primitive Leviathan" That resembles the ancestors of the class, or is an "Advanced Species" that resembles a crocodile beccause of convergent evolution. Debates on which is true is still going on.
 * It's jaws are unique, not only for being crocodile like, but the lower jaws resemble a Deviljho's, having teeth on the end, that can be used as a crude shovel to throw mud and earth at prey.
 * It is a highly intelligent and highly aggressive predator, able to learn on the go, and attack accordingly.
 * It's tail is not only made for swimming, but also to be used as a weapon that can break bones easily.
 * It's legs are not unlike the Terrestrial Crocodiles of ancient times on prehistoric earth. Hence, the  Gustarnivore  can travel suprisingly quickly on land as it can in the water.
 * Their osteoderms cover the whole body, acting as an armor that can deflect even a Seregios' blade scales.
 * The underbelly, however, is soft, but it often tries to keeps that weak point protected at all times.
 * They can fire a beam of water from their mouths in the fashion of Plesioth or Mizutsune, and the Beam of water is so strong and precise, that it can knock a wyvern liek a Rathalos out of the air, stunned, so the  Gustarnivore  can then eat the now helpless prey when it's in the water.
 * In fact, it's favorite food are young wyverns that fall into the water or get too close to the  Gustarnivore  near the water's edge, such as a stray Rathalos/Rathian hatchling.
 * They have been known to, when devouring a large prey item or corpse, go to a "Feeding Frenzy", where they will attempt to eat anything that is unlucky enough to get in the crossfire, such as scavengers like Buzzarbile.
 * Local villages near areas where  Gustarnivore  are known to inhabit are known to be raided by  Gustarnivore, often resulting in the leviathan eating a pet or even the occasional and unlucky villager. This made the Guild actually make a law where a  Gustarnivore , if captured, must be relocated far away from the village it is near, where it will do no harm.
 * Gustarnivore  Fossils show that they were once much smaller creatures, about the size of a velociprey, before they became the behemoth sized creatures thay are now.
 * When attacking prey, they attempt to drown it first while overpowering it if the bite does not kill said prey first. Then they roll while having their jaws closed on a part of the now dead prey, to rip flesh, as they cannot chew food.
 * During Mating Season, males are known to make loud bellows that are used to attract potential mates, and males compete with each other rather viciously when two males do meet, often resulting in a battle to the death, that can result in the death of one of the individuals.
 * Female  Gustarnivore , unlike crocodiles, are livebearers, and give birth to twins, either two of the same sex, or one of each.
 * Mother  Gustarnivore  are quite aggressive towards other creatures while raising young, even taking on Deviljho that wander near to protect their young.

Inspiration sources and other notes

 * The name comes from "Gustave", the name of an imfamous Crocodile that killed many people, and also the term "Carnivore".
 * It is Gojira57's first original Leviathan to be based on a Crocodile.
 * It will be encountered in G-Rank and R-Rank only, due to them being so dangerous and intelligent that even veteran hunters have to be extremely cautious, and the fact that Gustarnivore can, and will, take advantage of any weakness shown by the hunter, and even plan their next attack, which can include leaving an area of the map to go to another, only to attack the hunter in the next hunter immediately afterwards once they come in the area.
 * There may be a Variant or a Deviant coming soon afterwards that is in the works. they will only be encountered in R-Rank.
 * It's Sccientific name means "Killer Crocodile Mimic", which is both a reference to the batman villian "Killer Croc", and a means to show it is not a "True Crocodile".
 * Even it's Japanese title is a reference to "Killer Croc".
