Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: (1d6 + 1) 1d6+3 bludgeoning damage.

Another experiment of the Transmutation expert Lorwyn Gorwick. A mixture of Giant Crab and Giant Eagle.

Some can be found in Havenport, but many have taken to living underwater or at the tops of many mountains. The modus operandi of this creature is to grab creatures with its claws. The cragle will fly straight up and then drop its target from a great height.
