'''Hunter Birds''' are scrapped bird enemies from ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. The strong resemblance that they have with the [[Hunter]]s suggests that they are possibly trained by them to harm [[Rayman]] and his friends. Along with many other scrapped characters, the Hunter Birds formed part of publicitary media such as the [[Daily Bubble]] and the launch site of the game. A Hunter Bird also made an appearance in [[Rayman merchandising|The Art of Rayman Origins]]. The most common artworks depicts a small featherless bird, with a suffering expression, a broken monocle and a messy moustache; this could be the form that the Hunter Birds take when they are defeated.

A Hunter Bird can be seen in the "Secrets" issue of ''[[The Daily Bubble]]'', in a clear sketch of the level '[[Hi-Ho Moskito!]]'; the Hunter Birds were supposed to appear right before the appearance of the [[Boss Bird]], however, they didn't make any appearance. The map also suggests that they were supposed to make their first appearance at the [[Desert of Dijiridoos]] instead of the [[Jibberish Jungle]]. The icon of the map also displays a clearer artwork of the Hunter Birds' real form: They have purple feathers, a thin body, small wings, a pointy beak and an enormous, curly moustache.
