92.8.194.253: /* Trivia */

[[Image:Monocerous.gif|frame|Monocerous [[NeoDeck]] image.]]'''The Monocerous''' is a vicious, bull-like monster, shrouded in flames erupting from its hooves, mouth, back and ears, who can paralyse victims with a roar. It's favourite food are [[JubJub]]s, which, fortunately for them, are the only [[Neopet]]s immune to the monster's bellow.

While the Monocerous has been featured since the very early days of the [[Neopets (website)|Neopets site]], it has always remained something of a side-character, not taking part in any major site events. The creature was featured for a time in the [[Gallery of Evil]] - where the JubJub's immunity to it was originally shared - before being removed at a later date, but as its [[NeoDeck]] card and [[Stamp]] still exist, it is assumed he is still present, roaming Neopia.

==Trivia==
*The name may be based on ''monoceros'', [[Wikipedia:Monoceros|a faint horse constellation]] in the winter's sky, or on the scientific name for the [[Wikipedia:Narwhal|Narwhal]], ''monodon monoceros''.
