![]() ![]() ![]() The mutts were four-legged with sharp talons at the end of each finger, had tight pale white skin and were the size of humans. They viciously attacked the tributes, harming them and even killing the female morphling from District 6, when she saved Peeta's life.Īfter President Snow realizes that he did not manage to kill Squad 451 and that they escaped into the Transfer, he sends lizard-like muttations after them. In The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, these were made to appear like Mandrill monkeys. They used their claws and teeth to make deep punctures in their victims' flesh that looked harmless, but in reality were deep enough to cause internal bleeding. One section of the 75th Hunger Games arena contained a mutated species of monkey with orange fur, fangs, and claws that came out like switchblades. Also in the film, Katniss gives Cato a mercy shot a lot earlier. At the end of the scene, the muttations run off into the woods, instead of jumping into a tube which leads back to the Capitol like in the book. In the film, the mutts are responsible for the deaths of Cato and Thresh. He says that they're excellent, so she inserts it into the Games. The mutts are first seen when Lucia, a Gamemaker, shows a hologram of one to Seneca Crane for evaluation. The Gamemakers designed these beasts in the Control Room, where they monitor everything that goes on in the games. ![]() The wolf muttations had brown, grey, black, or silver fur, and short muzzles. In the book they could balance on their hind legs and jump high, but in the film they did not. They run on all fours, and resemble each other. They look more like generic large, vicious, bulky dogs. In The Hunger Games film, the mutts don't resemble the tributes at all.

The muttations mortally wounded Cato trying to kill him but he was armored with some Capitol-created armour. Katniss realized what these muttations were when she shot the wolf mutt that looked like Glimmer. Katniss recognized five wolf mutts: Glimmer, Foxface, the boy from District 9, Thresh and Rue. The 74th Hunger Games was the only known year that these creatures were used, acting as a painful and effective weapon to drive together the remaining tributes at the Cornucopia. This made them look so much like their tribute, that Peeta wondered if they had been made using the tributes' real eyes. This was achieved by using Capitol technology to recreate the humans, mixed with a form of wolf. Each of the mutts resembled one of the tributes who had died previously in the Games, had a collar marked with the district number of the tribute it was based on, and had eyes that looked remarkably human. These creatures were able to balance on their hind legs, jump very high, and had four-inch long razor-sharp claws. In the 74th Hunger Games, the Gamemakers released a pack of wolf-like creatures on the final three tributes, Katniss Everdeen, Peeta Mellark, and Cato. They live in huge hives high up in trees. These mutts will also hunt down anyone who disturbs their nest and attempt to kill them, hence the name tracker jackers. More than a few stings can kill a person some people die after just one. Their stings raise lumps the size of plums on their victims, and their venom (engineered to target fear in a victim's brain and alter their memories) causes hallucinations that can drive people to madness. They are larger than regular wasps and have a gold-colored body. Tracker jackers are deadly wasps that were made by the Capitol and placed around the districts during the first rebellion.

They were described as black and crested, similar to the mockingjays' appearance. īy the time of the 75th Hunger Games, the Capitol had replenished the jabberjay population and used them in one of the time "sectors," where tributes Finnick Odair and Katniss Everdeen were trapped and forced to listen to the birds' mimicry of their loved ones' screams. Eventually they did die off, but not before unexpectedly mating with female mockingbirds to produce a whole new species the mockingjay. When they realized they were being played, the Capitol ceased using the jabberjays and abandoned them to die off in the wild. However, once the people in the districts realized how their private conversations were being transmitted, they used the jabberjays to feed endless lies to the Capitol. They had the ability to memorize and repeat whole human conversations and repeat them back to their Capitol handlers. The jabberjay is a type of exclusively male bird that was created to eavesdrop on enemies of the Capitol during the First Rebellion. ![]()
