Encountering Tips

How do I kill a ichthyornis? ichthyornis battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Watch out for these things when you have a fertilized egg on you!!! (These have been known to steal wyvern eggs)
The best primitive way of dealing with these annoying seagulls is to shoot them with a bow using spears is very difficult I learned the hard way try and go for a clean headshot as it swoops around u
When you encounter this but hole you want to have a pear ready or something else and wait for it to attack you that wack it.
Back away make sure it doesn’t swoop you and eat something ps very annoying
they fling your weapons on the ground
If you see it run it takes your items JUST RUN (unless you have like a bow)
This little prick stole 50 narcotics from me and ate them, I was slightly wondering if he was gonna pass out but never found out because my dino killed it
I had some near my base in Ragnarock, and one swooped down, picked up my dodo like dead fish, killed, and ate it! These things are the bane, (and help if tamed) of low level players!
Stole and ate an entire stack of narcotics I was going to use very early game... great game 10/10
Kill them while you can and watch out for them at all times. I lost 90 narcotics to these guys
I always keep my stacks of narcotics and other precious stuff completely split. It May make a mess in my inventory, but when those bastards be thievin', I'm like "what ever".
An Ichty once took a stack of narcotics off a Therizino I had KO'ed. Nearly killed "my" tame. Ran out of narcotics - taming failed. Just another day on Ark :-)
Just as a heads up, these guys arent just flying pegos in the whild, they also knock weapons out of your hand and toss it onto the ground
Try to avoid, they steal your items and small pets and can be hard to kill. I suggest that you use a spear or pike since I can't bola shoot or club this thing
Target practice,just get a fabricated sniper and have those memories of the video game duck season come flooding back
If you get targeted by these a lot simply get a wyvern or if your not ready to tame one of those a pterdon and chase them around attacking them until they are gone
Now these ugly things are stupidly annoying try to avoid these as hard as possible. Now if you are in a situation use a crossbow or a bow they don’t have that much health and I have seen videos saying that a crossbow and a bow are your best options to take these out. I HOPE IN THE FUTURE ARK REMOVES THESE STUPID SEAGULLS!!!!!!!
You’ll know their coming. “KAW!!! SCREEECH!!!!!!)
Stay away from these, they take your stuff and eat it right away and they do a lot of damage, if your a low level your screwed big time, if you’re a medium level sling shot it or tranquilize it and tame it, it’s nice for catching small fish in shallow water. If you’re a high level snipe these bad boys or shoot a cannonball at it and watch it go “ Flying.”
When found name sure to tame it and name them "MINE!" and swarm that rival in the sea of thieves (damn birds stealing my fries)
On xbox tell your dinosaur to kill it cause it will eat anything it gets it ate my pistol and ramshackle pike
