'''Savage Beasts''' are corrupted animals of the [[Western Kingdoms]] who now charge-attack anyone passing by on sight. They are [[Beasts|beast]]-type [[monster]]s.
This type of monster has been referred to by They all have the developers same special attack '''Charge''' and as the name suggests this is a "Beastgiant head butt with a run-up." Since that The animal snorts before it's both utterly-uncreative and confusing/redundant given that one of the three classifications of monsters in Diablo III is "beasts," about to charge so it's hoped a better name will be used in easily avoidable as he's locked onto the final gameposition at that point and won't alter his course so step aside to avoid getting hit.
Horned Ground Sloth is the name used in a piece of concept art.

They have a very fast charging attack, and gore with their huge tusks up-close, though the few seen in the [[WWI 2008]] [[gameplay movie]] died pretty easily. They're not just [[beasts]] either; they've been mutated by [[Diablo]] (or someone?) to become monstrous, as a close-up view of their face demonstrates.
The one that charges in the gameplay movie signals his intent before the charge, by pausing for a moment, pawing with one forelimb, and snorting a great plume of smoke before rocketing straight at (and hitting) the [[Witch Doctor]].Act I

==BackgroundGreat Horned Goliath==Little is known of why these creatures, that seem to be herbivores, would go out of their way to attack people passing them by. It's clear that some sort of [[demon]]ic corruption has taken place.
There is speculation that the Savage Beast [[monster]] is a violent or corrupted version of the Horned Ground Sloth, a beat of burden*Appears in Act III - *Melee physical attack and also with very fast charge.
==Lore==
The large, sluggish beasts can thrive in any grassland or forest, provided there is enough water. Farmers will recognize these brutes as the savage cousins of the common packbeast-- a tame breed that was likely domesticated nearly two thousand years ago. One can hardly imagine the trouble that effort must have taken.
