The spiked hare (Almiraj in the GBC translations) is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Characteristics

Spiked hares are identical in looks to [[Bunicorn|bunicorns], only having purple fur instead of gray. Sometimes, they are pink colored.

In terms of strength, spiked hares are often a threat encountered earlier on, usually when the lesser bunicorn is no longer troublesome. They are often capable of building up their strength to launch a powerful attack.
