The Fierce Jaw Wyvern Anjanath (アンジャナフ, anjanafu) is a Brute Wyvern introduced in Monster Hunter: World.
Physiology and Abilities
The Anjanath is a large Brute Wyvern covered in pink skin and dark feathers that resemble a fur coat. It has powerful hind legs and degenerated, useless arms, with three small claws on each hand. Its head resembles that of traditional Tyrannosaur depictions, with powerful jaws and teeth being a prominent feature. Its tail is stiff and muscular. When enraged, the Anjanath reveals additional physiological features that are usually hidden: Rigid spines extend along the far end of its tail, two massive sails open up on its hips and a large nasal crest unfolds on its nose.
Like many Brute Wyverns, the Anjanath is a powerful predator with ferocious strength. Its massive jaws can rip apart enemies with ease, and its legs can crush smaller targets. The Anjanath's tail can also be used as a whip. Its most problematic ability however is its flame breath, which is generated in the throat. The production organ will glow red once its ready to be used. The Anjanath can expel a stream of scorching embers from its nostrils, or ignite its maw to deliver a flaming bite. It's most dangerous attack has the wyvern spew a devastating beam of fire from its mouth. While this move is powerful, it exhausts the Anjanath's fire organ, and the wyvern must recharge for a while before it can spew flames again.
The Anjanath is quite aggressive and will chase hunters relentlessly, especially when enraged. It will also attack other monsters, but will usually get pushed back by Rathalos if they ever meet.

Characteristics: Infamous for its belligerence, this brute wyvern indiscriminately attacks all without hesitation. The large membrane extending from its waist to the base of its tail fans out when it becomes agitated. This fan-like membrane is thought to be used not only for intimidation, but also as a mode of body temperature control. This is attributed to the fact that when Anjanath expels flames from its mouth, the membrane has been spotted expanding in tandem, releasing excess heat. Useful Information: It will often employ bite attacks at close-range, while at a distance it will attempt to lunge at you with great leaps. Habitats: Forest, Desert |

This belligerent monster will attack anything without hesitation. The membrane along its tail fans out when it is provoked-a behavior theorized to be either an act of intimidation or thermoregulation, as it has been known to do so when it breathes fire. Threat Level: ★★★★★★ |

The Anjanath patrols the Ancient Forest looking for its favorite meal, Aptonoth. This belligerent monster will attack anything without the slightest provocation. Useful Information: Anjanath spits fiery blasts from its mouth utilizing a unique organ in its throat. Focusing attacks on its throat will make battling it much easier. |

From Pages 232-237:
Full length: approximately 1646.46 cm
Full height: approximately 625.75 cm
Foot size: approximately 182 cm
Known habitat: Ancient Forest, Wildspire Waste
Anjanath's back and tail are adorned with dark feathers, and it's speculated that young Anjanath could have more but they have yet to be observed. It's capable of bristling spikes on its tail, which is powerful enough to create gusts of wind in combat and used to swat away insects otherwise. It uses this tail along with its strong legs to position enemies in front of its large jaws. Its upper snout is covered in a "nose hood" that can be flipped up to expose its sinuses. This is done both to expel flammable mucus and to enhance its sense of smell to impressive levels which it uses to track prey.
Anjanath's exposed skin appears pink, but it's actually translucent and revealing the blood flowing underneath. It's believed that the temperature of this blood, and therefore of Anjanath, is influenced by its surroundings given its lack of sweat glands and other traits. Its feathers likely provide insulation, while its cartilage-lined dorsal flaps filled with capillaries act as cooling fins. These may also be used in communicating with other Anjanaths. These flaps and nose hood, when exposed, are weak points targeted by hunters.
During life and death conflicts, Anjanath has been known to enter a "fired up" state where its throat glows red. It has an organ in its throat that stores a substance, which, when mixed with mucus and exposed to oxygen, will combust. This causes flames to leak from its jaws and enables it to blast fire either straight ahead or around itself, though these are exhausting attacks that it will only use when it has created a tactical opening. This state leaves it vulnerable to explosions in its mouth. When it can no longer regulate the body heat produced in this state, it expels all of its fire at once.
Anjanaths hunt herbivorous wyverns, favoring Aptonoth, and even go so far as to stalk prey to the Wildspire Waste. It does not use its fire to cook its food, preferring to eat it raw, which it does about five times a day. After eating it will tend to sleep, drink, and sunbathe an average of 3 times per day. Outside of this routine, it can be found patrolling its territory, marking it with mucus about 30 times a day. Anjanath is solitary and aggressive, attacking any intruder. While it dominates Great Jagras and Tobi-Kadachi, it is at a disadvantage to Rathalos.
Developer's Note: Early on, the development team had decided on including a four-legged Great Jagras, two-legged Anjanath, and winged Rathian before deciding how to include them in the Ancient Forest. Anjanath's plumage is the team's take on dinosaurs with feathers. They wanted a monster that would use scent to prevent players from hiding. The team intended Anjanath to bring players to intermediate gameplay, forcing them to utilize all the combat essentials they had learned including guarding, evading, and recovery items.
