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.

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 one when exploring the lake/river in the redwoods, it was getting dark so I decided to rest beside a cliff for safety when I heard a scream and seen a white blurry past me, luckily it was running face first into the rocks so I threw a bola and smacked it with a club until it went to sleep, now I have a really cute parachute lizard bird.

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.

Hello, I am the archaeopteryx lord's wife archaeopteryx lady, and I just want to inform all of you that he has killed many of innocent people because they were hurting the archaeopteryxes to knock them out. I think this is unfair for all the innocent people who just want to tame an archaeopteryx.

Found one before, fell in love. Tried to tame it and then this level 50 enforcer came over and murdered me, Yes this was on extinction.

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

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

We citizens of archaeopteryxs declare that the archaeopteryx lord is a big [email protected] meanie. upp so we can elect a new lord

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.

Found all over the sanctuary on extinction (the abandoned city)

Where you will also fined lamp posts which can be harvested for a large amount of scrap metal crystal and element dust use a doedicurus for maximum yield , spiders and tapejaras.

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

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

Mini argies.

Just much less dangerous.

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

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