{{quote|text=This big furry creature was initially intended to play an important role in Rayman's adventure, serving to introduce "puzzle" elements.

For example, Rayman could make the horned Flabars charge to ram down certain doors, or fly on the backs of the winged ones to reach otherwise inaccessible places.

'''Bontons''', also known as '''Flabars''', are creatures which resemble kangaroos or goats. They have brown or blue fur (blue in the [[Xowar secret]]). Some have horns. The [[Teensie]] tribe known as the [[Sylkin]]s tend the Bontons for their wool and milk, and some [[Sylkin]]s are seen shepherding them in the ''[[Rayman 3]]'' intro sequence.

An in-game model for the Bonton was created, but when the creature [[Rayman 3 (early production)|was cut]] from ''[[Rayman 3]]'', the developers decided to hide a blue, horned Bonton in [[Xowar secret|a secret room]] so that their work would not entirely go to waste. [[Xowar secret|The room]] also contains other unused models, such as the [[Xowar]] and a [[Glute]].

The ~~Bonton~~ was [[Rayman 3 (early production)|initially intended]] to play a much larger role in ''[[Rayman 3]]''. The Bonton served to introduce "puzzle" elements.
