In Monster Hunter Wilds, the game’s first hunt is started off with Chatacabra.
Let’s take a quick look at their various stats to start.
In general, Chatacabra is fairly easy to take on with any build, even in the early game.
As such, just about anything will work against them as long as it has decent defense.
Once again, the same weapons will work wonders here.
Here’s a breakdown of each of their moves, and the best way to avoid them.

Chatacabra will open their mouth and do a quick bite in front of themselves.

This can be followed up by a slam with the opposing fist.
Keep your distance as it is quite easy to get knocked away.
Double Fist Slam
Chatacabra will jump into the air and land down a short distance away, fists first.
Move away, or unleash a heavy attack while they’re in the air to instantly stun them.
Licking Charge
Chatacabra will whip out their tongue and start charging forward, knocking you out of the way.
Once again, move out of the way and follow after them.
