:bi:`Standing Leap`. The bulette's long jump is up to 30 feet and its
high jump is up to 15 feet, with or without a running start.


Actions
^^^^^^^

:bi:`Bite`. *Melee Weapon Attack:* +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.
*Hit:* 30 (4d12 + 4) piercing damage.

:bi:`Deadly Leap`. If the bulette jumps at least 15 feet as part of its
movement, it can then use this action to land on its feet in a space
that contains one or more other creatures. Each of those creatures must
succeed on a DC 16 Strength or Dexterity saving throw (target's choice)
or be knocked :ref:`prone` and take 14 (3d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage plus 14
(3d6 + 4) slashing damage. On a successful save, the creature takes only
half the damage, isn't knocked :ref:`prone`, and is pushed 5 feet out of the
bulette's space into an unoccupied space of the creature's choice. If no
unoccupied space is within range, the creature instead falls :ref:`prone` in
the bulette's space.
