Use a snow owl to deflate the gasbags and keep them from flying away and you heal them so you wont kill them with tranqs. UP THIS COMMENT

Use 6 or more stone dino gates like you would on argy (after update) to trap- with 2 doors on the end, then pump full of tranq darts. ^ this so others can see

If you wanna fly longer on these bad boys upgrade oxygen
Taming & KO  
From my experience u cannot trap these no more when I was trying to tame mine it didnt go in the trap it just turned around when. It was near the dino gates and walked away.
77 points   Utility  
This is the only flier that can be used on genisis. So if the amazingly fast bloodstalker is not your ideal transport, then this beanbag-balloon-bug is perfect for a slow paced surviver.
450 points   Encountering  
This is basically a fat caterpillar. I heard they are like pack mules because they have a lot of weight capacity. They also look adorable.
