Michael Dougherty said the idea that this film would sort of establish the notion that Monarch has found a lot of these creatures hibernating under the planet. "That after the events of 2014 and their studies on Skull Island, Monarch smartly realized that the Earth was littered with these hibernating beasts and had become very good at locating them, thankfully before they woke up. Something I love about the original Toho movies is that's what exists. Those movies essentially are saying that we live in a world populated by sleeping monsters underneath our feet. So that was my way of teeing up that ticking time bomb. For a little while it was up in the air as to whether or not we'd be able to license some additional Toho creatures to fill out those brackets. Lo and behold, Toho is very smart. They're great at business and they put a price tag on every single one of their creatures. If you want to license King Caesar or Mechagodzilla or any of them, you've got to pay up. They've got a fee. So, ultimately, we chose, at least for the new creatures that we're depicting on screen, to add new and original creatures. Again, that falls in line with the long tradition of Toho monster movies. They're always adding new monsters as part of the appeal. Every movie is going to introduce a new opponent for [Godzilla] to face. So it was a privilege to kind of get to exercise those muscles and take off the shackles and design new creatures that would still feel at home with the existing roster of monsters. The one you described as a mammoth is called Behemoth and he's one of the few other mammals. It was important to me that we add a mammal to the mix because so many of the other Toho creatures tend to be reptiles, insects or some sort of hybrid of the two. I wanted a good companion mammal for Kong, and I've been fascinated with ice age wildlife for a very long time, and woolly mammoths in particular, but I didn't want to just make it a literal giant mammoth. If you actually study his anatomy, you'll see that he's sort of a hybrid of mammoth, a giant sloth and even some primate features".
