Tips & Strategies
I highly recommend counting on being dragged off by one of these guys, stay away from the water even on a tall mount, the lower you go, the higher the chances of you being knocked off your mount and dragged off into the water. Have a sword or bolas, I usually go with the sword option as you can just go on to kill it immediately.
The higher your Melee the better your chances of killing them with little damage taken. I've fought them off easier with the sword.
Avoid Dinos that are low to the ground cause they will snatch right off... Just avoid the swamps until you have the appropriate equipment and armor to deal with Dinos in the swamp. These guys are worse than Sarcos.

decided to fly low in a swamp with my argie, a kapro jumped and kidnapped me off my argie. I live to tell my story, they do not have candy, donβt trust them.
Ever seen a frail old lady in the supermarket get randomly dump-tackled while she was browsing the clementines?
Well guess what, if you go to the swamp, you're going to be the old lady.
The swamp is an evil place thanks to these and those damn snakes.
If you run across one and it happens to leap at you, bite you, and start to carry you away throw a bola at it and it will let you go.
uncariable by argy huh yeah argy or quetz and wyvern can carry it
Please NEVER go near the swamps if unprepared YOU WILL DIE you'll will be around 5 seconds in and your in this guys jaws
This guy is my favourite so far, right from when I first meet him, I was a noob and wandered close to a swamp well he came flying at me missed and disappeared behind me, I'm like what the neck was that, climbed a big arse rock asap and looked around, bugger came bounding back towards me and leapt straight up that rock like it was a mole hill.
Tamed the bugger and took him hunting, came across my first raptor and shat myself thinking oh rap I am screwed, nope Kappa flys over my head, collects the raptor and pile drives it into the ground several meters away, hilarious. Always fun times with Kappa around.
I shit myself a little the first time one jumped at me, not gonna lie
For all the noobs out there, if these things kidnap you in the swamp, hereβs what to do. Take out your bow/ gun. Pray you have ammo and fire right into its head. This strategy has saved me countless times.
P.S. If you have a strong melee weapon such as a pike or sword on you, that also works.
Me: is within a 6 mile radius of a swamp
