Kakaru

From StarCraft Wiki

The kakaru is an avian reptile native to Shakuras, an abundance being found at Kakaru Keys.^[1]

[edit] Game Unit

Kakarus are the only critter in StarCraft that can fly, making them ideal for spying on enemies with queen parasites. If a kakaru is slain in-game, it disappears in a blue flash, similar to organic protoss units (though in their case, this is due to teleportation mechanisms.^[2]

[edit] Trivia

The kakaru resembles the prehistoric pterosaur and is similarly named to the kakuru, a small Cretaceous theropod.
