Giadrome

The alpha leader of a pack of Giaprey, the Giadrome sports a beautiful crest. Larger than a Giaprey, any hunter silly enough to encroach on its turf will be frozen in a hail of ice.
The leader of the Giaprey, with a large blue crest, living mainly in the Snowy Mountains. Watch out for its ice spit, which turns hunters into snowmen. Just to be safe, bring a Thawing Agent when you fight it. It moves almost like an ordinary Giaprey. It has no counter to its sides or rear, so if you keep circling to those sides you can hit the Giadrome while it turns around. There are also openings after you dodge its ice spit or leap, so those are chances to go all out too.
