Grunts are approximately 5' tall and are relatively weak when compared to other [[Covenant species]]. However, they are quite strong for their size. They can easily walk either upright on two legs, or on all fours. While carrying arms, they are forced to walk upright so that they may support their weapons with their hands, but while trying to flee, or while patrolling without a weapon drawn, they will use their oversized arms as forelegs to add speed or stability to their gait. | Grunts are approximately 5' tall and are relatively weak when compared to other [[Covenant|Covenant species]].

Grunts have hooves on their three-toed feet, their skin is leathery and purple-gray, and they have thick, light-blue blood<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 27</ref> (possibly because of the methane they breathe and the chemical reaction within their bodies). If you look at a Grunt's blood on the floor with a flashlight, you'll see that it's completely transparent. They have a single claw that protrudes from each elbow, but its function is unknown, since there are no known instances where it was used in combat. Even though they are small and not very agile, they are surprisingly strong -- they can carry and fire a Fuel Rod Gun or a [[Rocket Launcher]] on their shoulder without toppling over. | Grunts have hooves on their three-toed feet, their skin is leathery and purple-gray, and they have thick, light-blue blood<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 27</ref> (possibly because of the methane they breathe and the chemical reaction within their bodies).
