In Monster Hunter Stories 3, there are nine rare and endangered monsties to discover. You’ll find them in special dens, but each one is protected by a powerful, invasive monster. Here’s a complete list of these endangered monsties and where to find them.

Endangered Monsties Den Location Guarded By
Rathian The den is located on the eastern edge of Azuria in Sunpetal Plains Invasive Yian Garuga
Astalos The den is located in the northwest corner of Mirror Lake. Invasive Seregios
Lagiacrus The Den is located inside a hidden cave in Mirror Lake. Invasive Plesioth
Canyne The Den is located in Cantalta Timberland. Invasive Arzuros
Nargacuga The Den is located in the southeastern part of Blessing Hill. Invasive Nerscylla 
Zinogre The den is located at the top of a mountain in Rococo Rocks, Tarkuan Invasive Odogaron
Barioth The den is located in the northeast of the Coastline Catavan Stand. Invasive Khezu
Tigrex The den is located at the southern tip of the Colossal Dragon’s Remains area Invasive Diablos
Mizutsune The den is located behind the waterfall at the northern edge of the Frozen Grotto area Invasive Shogun Ceanatuar

Don’t expect your normal hunting strategies to work on Invasive Monsters. These are tougher versions of the monsters you already know, with special abilities that make them much more dangerous. For example, to drive away an Invasive Yian Garuga, you’ll need to break its legs.

If you encounter an Invasive Plesioth, the most effective strategy is to use fire-based weapons combined with a hammer. Focus your attacks on its head to force it to flee.

You don’t have to completely defeat these monsters. Instead, you need to fulfill a certain condition during the battle to make them leave. Keep in mind that these special monsters only appear at night, so be sure to change the time to nighttime at any Catavan Stand before you start looking for them. After the monster runs away, you can go inside its den and battle the Endangered Species there to get its egg.
