Fun fact, archaeopteryx was very important for it was the creature that confirmed the theory of birds being linked to dinosaurs. 🙂

Press R on the pc version to stop and start your glide. Didn’t see a single comment that said this so here’s the first. ;)

Don't put points into its movement speed if you want to glide faster. It glides as fast you run, so putting points into your movement speed will increase how fast it will glide. Hope this saves you from wasting levels like me : )

I see the Otter God, the Jerboa King and the Defender of Bulbdogs made an early move. Now I the Archaeopteryx Lord shall rise. If any one of you guys kill these birbs I will look for you and feed your soul to the ravenous birbs I own. So if you see one my birbs Naruto running away for you, DO NOT kill it instead be its friend, they are a great parachute and they are wholesome creatures to begin with. So you have be warned by the Archaeopteryx Lord...

Careful not to confuse these with a microraptor. One will flee in fear, the other will rko you and eat your face

Fun fact: Archaeopteryx means “ancient wing”

Amazing for riding Ptera. Right before you run out of stamina on ptera, simply jump off while holding one of these and the ptera will regain its stamina in the air. Once your pteras stamina is full you can hop back on. Never need to land in dangerous areas again.

On mobile these guys tend to glitch out a lot, so try to shoot them when there completely still on a tree. When glitching they often just teleport tree to tree and/or slowly slide down the tree until they fall to the floor (from my experience you cannot hurt or knock them out in this state)

Hope this helps!

CALLING ALL MOBILE PLAYERS

Use these to complete the ‘Thin Air’ pursuit! They don’t count as a mount and will work as a parachute. Get to the start of the volcano path (you can use a flier to do that, as long as it’s before you start the pursuit) first then climb up the volcano while holding an archaeopteryx. Keep a bodyguard around or drop your archaeopteryx somewhere flat while you quickly fight off the danger. The pursuit is made easy.

People say its not on mobile tell that to my glider

Standard bola, 2 tranq arrows and feed chitin

Hey everyone! Umm, for the people who say that they wait hours just to reach the ground after jumping off from a high place, you can just press x on xbox to stop the gliding, and pressing it again to start the gliding. Hope it saves some time!

U can use this as an parashute

Can occasionally be found on the ground. If so, bola and knock out with fists, I fear that anything else might kill it. Feed a little chitin and boom an adorable feathered parachute!

Hit X (on Xbox controller) to stop and start glide.

If you tame one and put it in wander near a redwood tree it will eventuly collect sap (descovered that this morning while i wanted it to wander in my small dino enclosur)

Can be used as a parachute

Some youtubers say that they are useless. WRONG. They are better than wasting time crafting a parachute and they can attack and they are small so very hard to target. I saw one of these drill through a rex and the thing didn’t even take damage once and the rex died.

This may seem obvious but if you see an egg TAKE IT! Once taken the female will agro you, knock it out with tranqs and then badaboom it's yours! These guys are a pain in the ass to find and/or tame so taking an egg is probably the easiest way to get em (especially on mobile since they glitch out)
