If the leech is not coming off, check for the debuff. There is a visual glitch.

If you have a leech attached to you and you never came in contact with a leech. One of your tamed Dino’s probably has a leech on them.

Rode a thyla in swamp. I got swamp fever and couldn't ride my tame

Enjoy your swamp fever! I’ve been on servers where the entirety of the player base was infected somehow and non of them ever spawn to get leech blood

Cough cough cough wheeze cough wheeze

I'm never going into the swamp again

Yay the leech page is expanding

you can never see them coming... Until its too late..

I stepped into the swamp for 2 seconds. Also got 2 leeches.

If you get leached, don't freak out, worst possible scenario from getting leached is that you freak out, run to your base, use all of your Stam and stop walking and you get attacked by something (baryonyx, sarco, kapro, titanboa, ect.) Or that you somehow forget that it stuck to your face and realize it who knows how long later (10, 20 minutes maybe no clue) when in red print, "you have died." These are definitely not something to worry about too much, but try to get it off the first chance you get.

dont touch the red ones. red = no

To the post that said they weren’t sure if swamp fever exists in mobile, it does. I’ve gotten it on mobile. Also I was killing animals in the swamp with my dire wolf and it said killed infected leech in the kill feed.

They are rare but don’t give up you will find one!!!

Just a helping hand beware when you drink water on the island there is a small chance to get it if your fortitude is low.i learned the hard way.

Bro i hate These Things my Tip is when you see one just dont come to close

On mobile just click the hand button to get it off game creatures

Can somebody tell me pls how to get leech's off of your tame on mobile

If it bites on you make a campfire and stand on it for a few seconds those losers will come off

Fire still works to get rid of them just tested it

If your looking for leach blood get scuba and go the the swamp cave with a bary then begin the extermination

They suck to get on you fight from long range
