Bunyip

Bunyip, also dubbed Titanus Bunyip, is a giant daikaiju created by Legendary Pictures that appears in Legendary's 2019 film, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, as a name briefly seen on a monitor.

Name

The "Bunyip" is a large Australian cryptid found in shallow water, similar to a hippopotamus. It is unknown whether Bunyip sightings are really Titanus Bunyip, or if Titanus Bunyip was given its name by Monarch for a different and unknown reason.

History

Godzilla: King of the Monsters

At some point, Bunyip had Monarch Outpost 99 in Uluru (also known as Ayers Rock) built around it. When Ghidorah calls all the Titans, Bunyip breaks free and begins to hunt with his new pack. When the ORCA calls all Titans to Boston, Bunyip does not arrive in time to see Godzilla become the new Alpha of all Titans (except Kong).

Trivia

• The outpost Bunyip was contained in, Monarch Outpost 99, is a possible reference to the 1999 Toho film Godzilla 2000: Millennium.
