- Description
- Desert-dwelling leviathans that build carapaces out of the fulgurite formed by lightning strikes. They use their flexible skeletons and serpentine bodies to create quicksand traps for unwary prey. Inside their mouths are multiple eye-like sensory organs. The mucus they secrete contains luminous bacteria and is believed to aid visibility while they are submerged and other low-light conditions like sandstorms.

Here are a few pointers on how to defeat a Balahara in Monster Hunter Wilds.
- Balahara is a quick and nimble creature that can attack with both its head and its tail. The main spot you want to focus on is its mouth, which is a weak point.
- Sometimes it'll burrow under the sand and leap out at you. While it's submerged, use sonic bombs or screamer pods to affect it.
