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

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

Won’t latch onto karkinos, if you’re on the ps go up to ur other tames go into the menu and the remove leech option will pop up, if you’re alone hop onto a fire a few quick seconds even at low health you’ll survive. If you’re with a mate they can remove them off of you. And you them.

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

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.

Cough cough cough wheeze cough wheeze

I'm never going into the swamp again

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.

Hello everyone i think this is important how to escape to this creature if you hit by this creature it will suck your blood but you can kill him without using materials you only need to built a campfire light up the campfire and get in the fire to kill the leech but make sure you have a lot of health so you won’t die i guess you guys understand me and thank you guys for reading it if this tip got 30 i will tell about how to tame raptors

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

Fire still works to get rid of them just tested it

They suck to get on you fight from long range

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