— How facing a mountain troll made the trio friends[src]

The mountain troll (Troglodytarum alpinum)[1] is a breed of troll. They are a type of Beast.

Description

History

An adult Mountain troll

A band of mountain trolls were wreaking havoc in Liechtenstein, which led to Pierre Bonaccord's position as Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation of Wizards being challenged by the local wizarding community, as he tried to ban troll-hunting and grant them rights at the time.

A male mountain troll was used as a diversion so that Professor Quirinus Quirrell could attempt to get past Fluffy to capture the Philosopher's Stone for his master, Lord Voldemort.[4]

Late in August 2020, Mountain trolls rode graphorns through Hungary.[5].

Uses

Troll whiskers can sometimes be used as wand cores.[6]
