Cryptozoology:

First discovered on Letchi Island in 1966 by a team of Monarch explorers led by Dr. Yamane and Bill Randa, a large egg about at least 50 feet wide was found deep within a cave. The egg containing the creature was eventually transported to a mobile quarantine zone in New Zealand.

Coincidentally, in the same caverns within Letchi Island, Dr. Yamane also found paintings of a two-winged creature of otherwise similar form, possibly depicting an earlier ancestor. Translated symbols and runes in the caves referred to the beast as "Gyaos".

Soon enough, in New Zealand's warm conditions, the egg quickly hatched to reveal a creature of undiscovered species. At first, it was believed to be a sub-species of Rodan, due to their similarities such as their pterosaurian appearances. However, such beliefs were disproved soon enough, with the creature's dominantly green scales and four wings, which seems very rare, unique and unusual for any flying creature; avian, pterosaurian or otherwise.

Threat Analysis:

Because of the first specimen's small stature compared to other MUTOs, the AERO was thought to be a mild threat. However, over time this was eventually proven to be an infant of its species, due to its quick growth spurt (growing by 2.4 feet a day).

Its blackened teeth, the protrusions of which are similar to that of a crocodile, are able to heal back if broken or snapped off during combat. Similarly, its talons are very thick and strong in terms of gripping, and can also heal.

Because of its mass, its flight could cause a strong wave of wind, albeit on a smaller scale when compared to the much larger Rodan. Its long tail, despite changing little affect during flight, does prove to be prehensile.
