Haunting Wail. The karkadann has a loud, haunting call, a wail which carries for miles across flat terrain. Some speculate that it is calling for a mate; others that it is crying out in loneliness, for there are few karkadanns left in the world. Their formidable nature makes them attractive targets for trophy hunters, and their horns are highly prized as components for antidotes and for curing disease.
