The Gúta are semi-bipedal, where they are capable of standing on two legs, but will use their arms for support while running.

It is remarkably durable, requiring three to four [[M45 shotgun|shotgun]] blasts and an equal number of [[melee]] attacks to kill it on [[Normal]] difficulty. [[Plasma grenade]]s, however, are very effective against them, usually granting a one-hit kill.{{Verify_source}} They can also survive up to three direct hits from a [[Hunter]]'s cannon. | |||

*The | *A creature that looks very similar to a gúta, albeit a much smaller one than depicted in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', is indigenous to [[Minab]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 17|Issue 17]]''</ref> | ||
* | *The gúta has a slight resemblance to the [[fallout:Deathclaw|Deathclaw]] from the ''Fallout'' series, and slightly resembles the [[starwars:Rancor|rancor]] of the ''Star Wars'' universe. | ||
*Although the gúta does not resemble any living animal on Earth, a family of prehistoric dinosaurs called [[Wikipedia:Therizinosaurus|Therizinosaurs]] is known to have giant claws on their forelimbs. | |||
*The gúta is seemingly named after the guta, a fearsome demon from [[Wikipedia:Hungarian mythology#Persons, creatures, gods|Hungarian mythology]], as many of Reach's early settlers were of Hungarian descent. | |||
*A gúta's roar can push a Spartan back fairly hard, despite the enormous weight of a Spartan clad in [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]]. | |||
*On a player's career stats at [[Bungie.net]] and [[Halo Waypoint]], the gúta is listed as "mule". Instead of listing a rank, the entry simply says, "No hugging". The "Mule" nickname is an internal name used by Bungie employees.<ref name="DC">'''[[Halo: Reach Legendary Edition]]''', ''Developer Commentary''</ref> | *On a player's career stats at [[Bungie.net]] and [[Halo Waypoint]], the gúta is listed as "mule".

* | *Several ideas were formed around the gúta, but were ultimately cut from the game. Among these ideas were gúta being used as battle-mounts by [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]], gúta that were equipped with mounted weapons, and the ability for the player to "hijack" the Gúta and plant a grenade in its mouth.{{Ref/Reuse|DC}} | ||
*The gúta was originally set to be in several campaign missions in addition to ''[[Nightfall]]''. Due to resource constraints, this level features the only two gúta found in the game.{{Ref/Reuse|DC}} | |||
*The player can move a dead gúta's body around by attempting to walk over it, as a gúta's body is considered solid in the game's physics engine, unlike all other bodies in the game. | |||
*The gúta was originally meant to be in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], but were cut, as with all the other neutral AI. | |||
*Not only that, but there was going to be a gúta [[Firefight]] mode. | |||
