*A sick, old escapee from a zoo on the planet of '''Gershome'''. This specimen was well past its prime and was reduced to scavenging off the weak and infirm of the population of Tycho before it was killed by a Magistratum officer. At the time of its death it weighed only 600 kilograms and was in very bad condition overall with bad coat, teeth etc.<sup>1</sup>
*The two specimens fought by [[Eisenhorn]] and his retinue during the [[Necroteuch]] affair when they raided the [[House of Glaw]] on [[Gudrun]] and were captured and forced into an arena fight. It was during this encounter that the then [[Interrogator]] [[Heldane]] was seriously mauled, forever scarring his appearance soon after killing one of two Carnodon's. The other Carnodon was killed by [[Urisel Glaw]] when it started to rampage through the crowd of spectators during Eisenhorn's escape.<sup>2</sup>
[[Sanguinius]], the [[Primarch]] of the [[Blood Angels]] [[Space Marine Legion]], wore a carnodon-skin mantle over his [[Power Armour]].{{c|3a}}
