On PVE , these little guys dont really do much, they dont stun on foot and can be killed real easily, BUT others will agro you if there close enough to the one your fighting

I hate these bastards with a burning passion. They have knocked me off my mount so many times in the red woods, get my health down while I’m stunned and then some Carno or terror bird comes over and finishes me off. They will kill you, your family and anything you have ever loved.
Be ware!, they are the best kicker of all ARK. Imagine they hit your head with their super tiny leg, and surprisingly, with its power, they can knock u off from your mount and stunt both of you easily. Thats the power of the chiken leg
Oh yeah, dont forget with their massive scream. If you translate it, they say " u expecting an archeo, but its me MICRO!!! ORA!ORA!ORA!ORA!"
I’m a lvl 100 with my favourite mount being a lvl 250 wyvern and if I see one on these I run away
I keep confusing these things for archaeopteryx and dimorphs. One will flee in fear and climb onto the trees, one won’t react at all unless you attack them, and one will tackle you off your mount and eat your face.
Every time I KO these little nuisances, I have the urge to kill them as they have done to me way to many times by knocking me off my argy
The most dangerous creature in Ark! “They do very little damage” I agree, but everything else that lives around them does not! After they knock you off your tame you can only hope that your tame does high damage fast. I only survived being knocked off my Baryonx by it killing 7-8 raptors 2 sarcos and other stuff before they killed me. After that I burned those worthless things (and 1 more raptor) to death with my torch!!
That's a cute little birdie...RKO outta nowhere!!!
I was wondering through the swamp near the redwood when one of these bastards stunned me right next to 150 sarco which killed me☹️

ANNOYING
I fear these more than a giga and it isn’t a joke. I literally have ptsd from my first encounter.
