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”

Make sure you DON'T mistake them for Micros. These dudes run. I've accidentally killed one thinking it was a micro. Always use a spy glass to tell which is which. Finding these cute lil fellas is hard especially with all the thylas and terror birds around. To tame them you'll need Chitin so go kill some ants or dragonflies and then boom you have a lil buddy you can love forever, well y'know until they die or you quit.

These are NOT rare, just hard to find. Keep a close eye on the redwood trees, make sure to circle the trees, and listen for the noise they make.

Alright, so basically I found one of these in the wild and REALLY wanted one. But with all the fun things in the Redwoods willing to take out anything that looks at them... Well you get the idea. But when I went to a dungeon and saw a Eerie one I wanted it SO bad. So I killed that one took its creature implant, revived it at one of the obelisks and tamed that glory bird up. Now I have a light up parachute!

I found that if you use a pheromone dart (you need ammonite bile) then it attracts them to the Dino you shoot, but after they kill it they start attacking me, this makes it easy for me to knock them out and tame them

The one for the icon doesn’t do these guys justice. I have a gold, blue a red one and it’s beautiful

I had made a base in red wood and was up in the trees when I heard a scream, I look around me spot one of these guys are immediately knew that I needed one of these

You can also find these in the fuzzy trees in scorched earth by the small mountain

When ur trying to catch them in the trees and they disappear.Look closely at the tree cuz they sometimes glitch in the trees.

Won't assault you however if you go near it it will flee. This is because it's skittish in temperment. If you wish to tame keep this in mind

When playing on the Center, be warned that they are very DIFFICULT to find because they hide in the bushes. If you aren't careful, you'll probably get lost and die by the Carnos and Terror Birds that lurk in the Redwoods.

Usually found in and around the redwood forests, these little guys can be used as parachutes if you fall from a tame/ structure and save you dying. You will probably need a bola because although a passive creature it will fly to the nearest tree and latch on if you get too close

Halfway up the redwood trees ar thylacoleo too. Watch out, you may just get pounced off your mount in mid air.

Grabbed one with an argy to take back to base to tame but when leaving the redwood, the little sucker startled and was able to leap free to a nearby tree

You can run a dungeon and find these lil bad boys lvl 25+ and the best part of it they glow, last thing it’s only 8 or a little bit more amber to revive it.

Go to the redwood, look at the trees they'll often fly from one tree to the next. It can take some time to find but when you do they spawn in bunches. Now here's a nifty trick. Not all "grab point" on tree work perfectly, if the archa can't grab the tree it'll just fall vertically to the ground for not only an easy time to tranq it, but also other archas might fall to the ground near the same spot when they come along to feed! I tamed 3 archa in one spot for the price of one (fourth one got away).

Careful about the wildlife especially the angry birds

These things make me mad! I've been trying to find a micoraptor to tame for 2 hours now and these guys get my Hope's up. They look identical to the micoraptor, the only difference is that these guys run away from you. I wasted like 25 bolas already !

Easy to find on extinction search on the city buildings

Check other tribes platforms if able, I've found a couple stuck on them.
