Guess how I found out there was a 105 Tusoteuthis in the water with me....
Don't hit them. Just... dont't
Ammonite is passive, and when you hit it, you (or your mounted tame) will get the Buff/Debuff "Rage" (depending how you look at it)
With the Buff/Debuff, everything nearby will have a sudden, uncontrollable urge to kill you. Even the Parasaurs!
You can find Ammonite dwelling in the deep ocean, usually alone or in groups of 1-3. They are untameable. They drop Ammonite Bile, used to craft Pheromone Darts. If you get hit with "Rage", Prepare for that Alpha Mosasaur you thought you had outrun or that Tuso to come out and slaughter you. Or just get offed by a Coelacanth. Both is good.

Iβm not entirely sure if this theory can be considered canon, but I think that the ammonite uses the pheromones as a psychological convincer to any random creature to defend it.
Thatβs just a theory, a GAME THEORY!!!
Basically the equivalent of the chicken in Skyrim, you hit it be ready for a big fight with the town

Let me explain how sensitive these things are. If you get close, or hit them once, they will call their 'besties'.

Ever met a cry baby?..This guy will wail if you hit it and will cover you in a type of pheromone gas....causing you to attract every dino, sea or land, to bite your butt. Prepare for war. You only need to survive 80sec.
This thing is a crybaby. Hit it, and it'll go blubbering to all its friends. Exactly who are its friends? The whole ocean.
