Packs of night stalkers can be frequently seen hunting at night east of Morning Star Cavern near the nest with the radscorpion queen, south of the broc flower cave and northwest of the cap counterfeiting shack. Night stalkers nest in caves across the Mojave Wasteland and can be found both inside the cave or in the nearby area. They lay eggs, like a snake, but raise their pups similar to a coyote, nursing their young in cave nests. Night stalkers' right eyes are blue with a round pupil, while their left eyes are yellow with an elliptical pupil, like a rattlesnake's. Their heads and tails, however, are more like that of a rattlesnake, including fangs and a forked tongue. Their bodies are mostly dog-like, covered in a combination of fur and scales.

They growl, howl and whimper like regular coyotes, but hiss, rattle and inject venom into their prey like rattlesnakes. Nightstalkers are an amalgamation of the coyote and rattlesnake, displaying characteristics of both. Night stalkers occasionally clash with cazadores (which were also created at Big MT) over territory.

Adam Figgis thought the executives in charge of X-8 could salvage the mishap in shipping and decided to let the night stalkers loose into the X-8 testing area to study their behavior. ĭue to their creation, the shipping department of the X-8 research center suffered a large number of fatalities, where all but one employee ( Skippy) were killed by the night stalkers. However, his memory was unclear, and he also suggested that it may have been because of a dare with Dr. Borous created them in order to preserve the DNA of rattlesnakes, which he believed to be on the verge of extinction.
