There are a few types of creatures called '''hydra''' in the Warcraft lore.
 
 
==Azeroth Hydras==
 
A hydra is a huge, three-headed monster. They are found at the coasts of [[Darkshore]], [[Ashenvale]], [[Dustwallow Marsh]], and [[Azshara]]. They are amphibious and each head has its own will. Some are intelligent and might be the favored pets or servants of the [[Old Gods]].
 
 
Although hydras are usually [[uncategorized creatures]], some hydras in Azshara were recategorized as [[beast]]s in [[Patch 2.0.1]], possibly to ease [[hunter]] tracking during the hunter quest {{Quest|Wavethrashing}}.
 
 
==Outland Hydras==

Another type of creature called a hydra can be found on Outland with a more segmented like appearance. The outer two of their heads are small and have horns growing out the sides, several small eyes on each side, and no visible lower jaw. The middle head is larger and is notable for a single eye in the center of its face. They are commonly found in the pools of [[Zangarmarsh]], such as the famous [[Ghaz'an]], a boss in the [[Underbog]].
 
 
In Netherstorm's Ethereal Eco-Domes, there is a single hydra called Markaru whose natural growth has been accelerated by the Ethereal technology. Aurine Moonblaze, an envoy of the Cenarion Expedition that was sent to investigate the technology, tasks you with retrieving its heart for study.
