[[ImageFile:DoWDCGrKnarlocGreat Knarloc DWMX.jpg|thumb|right|A Greater Kroot goading a Great Knarloc in [[Dawn of War: Dark Crusade]]]] The '''Great Knarloc''' is a [[Kroot]] beast native to the jungles of [[Pech]]. They are larger than the more common [[Knarloc]]s.
Great Knarlocs are an evolutionary dead end, much like the [[Krootox]] and [[Kroot Hound]]. It is a solitary hunter in the jungles, suited by its muscular legs and hinge ankles for long distance tracking. Its lower legs and claws are developed for occasional bursts of speed, enhanced by the [[Hyperactive Nymune Organ]], and it can use its toes to launch itself from cover whilst stalking its prey. All of its developments put it firmly in the hunter/scavenger category, aided by its omnivorous nature.

Great Knarlocs which are older and more used to being controlled by the Kroot can be used to carry a heavy weapons (similar to the Krootox). This is often a [[Kroot Bolt Thrower]] or a [[Kroot Gun]] manned by two Kroot. They also form herds between one and three Knarlocs.
