That's a cute little birdie...RKO outta nowhere!!!

Oh look, an Ichthyornis that does topor damage. Just what this game needed -___-

Turn your render distance to low, turn off all shadows to see these guys easier. Seem to share the same spawns as troodon, so redwoods and forests.

Doesn't attack when mounting a Theri, same with terror birds. Chicken family.

They seem to only be aggressive when you are on your mount. Dismount before approaching or else you will find your self thrown off and Stunned. Walking forward and backwards quickly allows you to "hula hoop" an attacking Micro, giving you time to dismount and avoid the stun.

These can be found on scorched earth even though it dosnt show it on the ark wiki

It's like a raptor... But micro , so they are even more annoying

Was on se and a pack of 10 of them attacked me made it out on 5 hp on my saber tooth

They seem to only do their stun attack on mounted players. If you hear/see one coming towards you, dismount immediately. Theyll fly around you a bunch but wont stun you.

Oh there is no way I could object to a bird so small it’s hard to see knocking me off my new argy the second I initiate battle with an alpha carno

My tribe mate got stunned by one these while he was peacefully getting ripped to shreds by 1 thyacoleo, a swarm of bugs and a pack of terror birds. Guess which one caused his death? The microraptor because it stung him and he couldn't fight back.

There are 3 steps to evading these guys
1. Pray
2. Keep Running
3. Don’t look back

Can be found on Scortched Earth in the same area as Archeopterix. Wood areas all along red and blue oblelisk

If you want to tame, You can pick these up with a Quetzal to take back to base🙌🏼

Watch out. It's difficult to do anything in the redwoods without this demented chicken knocking you off your mount

One time with my friend we were in a forest looking for those giant crystals, I think it was the blue one and a micro raptor took me off my mount and had me paralyzed in a yellow ball like thing. My friend was protecting me from threats

Do not fly low in the redwood...

Looks and sounds nearly the same as archaeopteryx, but don’t get fooled because these will not run from u.

From what i heard it dont like the idea of survivors riding dinos its unnatural donit has extreme prejudice towards anyone doing so

Much more annoying than Ichthyornis in my opinion. Been pounced by these many times off of my Baryonyx and nearly got shredded by a Compy gang. Their small size (barely larger than a Compy) doesn’t help either.
