Background Information: Discovered in 2007 when a lone Garuda flew down over a rural town  and destroyed it with the wind generated by its wings. The creature quickly returned to the mountains it came from carrying with it the bodies of several of the villagers. The following month an expedition was sent out to uncover the creatures nest. The scientists discovered not only another adult Garuda in the mountains but also approximately 20 eggs about to hatch. In the years since their discovery a large number of Garuda have spread across the globe. After several military operations a large number of the species was culled but scientists still worry about undiscovered nests and the immediate danger this superspecies poses to unprotected towns.

Named after the Sun-bird Garuda from Hindu Mythology.
