Actions

Multiattack: The Baloth makes two attacks.   Bite: Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 10ft, one target. Hit: 25 (3d12 + 5) piercing damage.   Slam: Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5ft, one target. Hit: 23 (4d8 + 5) bludgeoning damage.

Ferocious armored behemoths with thick leathery skin, jagged horns, sharp teeth, and extremely irritable temperaments. Their bodies grow so much faster than their brains, if one manages to reach adulthood without being eaten, all it knows how to do is eat, sleep, and mate.   If you encounter a young Baloth, do not hold back because it's small. If allowed to get big, it will eat you like anything else it encounters.
