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.
