Tips & Strategies
Kairukus are the main source of organic polymer, which is needed for example to craft the Ghillie Armor. Organic polymer will spoil in 30 minutes/piece and it can't be put in a refrigerator or a Preserving bin to last longer, so be careful.
Another use of the Kairukus is, that they work as living Airconditoner and will keep your fertilized eggs at the right temperature, if they are placed by them.

Their sole purpose is to be killed for organic polymer, but you can tame and breed them for it:
Tame a whole bunch of them (you only need one male), and a dimetrodon and pelagornis.
Level the dimetrodon's melee damage a whole bunch and put it in a cage surrounded by penguins set to mating. Put the pelagornis in with them at set it to aggressive, the dimetrodon will incubate the penguin eggs and the pelagornis will immediately kill them when they hatch, free organic polymer factory.
