Monaraptors [Moh•na•rahp•ters] are small bear-like creatures with thick layers of fur and feathers. They have large paws, and what is perhaps their most distinguishing feature, three tall feathers rising from the back of their head. They are used for attracting partners, and occasionally for establishing dominance and territory among wild males. They have a large beak with a single stripe o fur separating it from their face this is usually a separate colour from their body.

A very special trait that monaraptors have is the ability to spread out the feathers on their chest, similar to what birds of paradise may do. The display is much less spectacular, but it serves its purpose of confusing potential predators that may lunge for the underbelly of the monaraptor. This happens when the Monaraptor stiffens up, and similar to how we humans have out hair stand on end, these feathers puff out. In international monaraptor shows, some trainers have their monaraptors do this on command to be judged by how the feathers puff out. They can also do this to the rest of their feathers, producing a larger, more fluffy appearance, not as threatening as the chest feather's appearance. However, It does make them look even cuter!

Another cool feature about the Monaraptor is their ability to replicate sound via high-pitched chirps, almost like the lyrebird. This ability in the wild helps to attract prey or to deter predators. In captivity, some keepers are known to teach their monaraptor complex songs or even quotes.
