A Kyratian (called Kairas in a Japanese guide) is a large, vaguely frog-like humanoid entity featured in Metroid: Other M. It appears to be equipped with some form of armor (or is partially mechanical itself) and is probably sentient. It appears in Sector 2 / Cryosphere on the BOTTLE SHIP. Its mechanical attributes indicate that it may have been one of the Federation's Zebesian special-forces units. Kyratians are incredibly agile opponents, capable of leaping across entire rooms as well as kicking away projectiles with split-second timing.
