While many associate *Monster Hunter* with the thrill of the hunt, capturing monsters is a crucial element, offering unique rewards and unexpected moments. *Monster Hunter Wilds* players have stumbled upon a humorous quirk: captured monsters don't simply vanish; they get up and leave after a short while!
Reddit user RDGtheGreat, on r/MonsterHunter, shared this amusing observation. After capturing a Nu Udra and patiently waiting, they witnessed the giant cephalopod casually amble away, prompting comparisons to a film wrap party.
Fun fact: captured monsters just get up and leave within a minute of napping

While in-universe explanations remain speculative (the research team hardly uses giant cages!), *Monster Hunter Wilds*' catch-and-release approach aligns with Alma's and the crew's overall attitude, suggesting a more ethical research methodology.
Regardless of lore implications, this detail is a charming addition. Capcom's inclusion of a dedicated animation, rather than a simple fade-out, showcases attention to detail. The sight of a multi-limbed monster, now somewhat depleted, waddling away is undeniably funny, yet adds a layer of depth to Alma and her team's research practices.
