These guys are really S tier flyers, especially for early game. Although theyre not as fast as the Pteranodon, they can recover stamina and float on water. They are masters at gathering organic polymer. Theyre also decently speedy and a good enough travel mount. My pela named Big Bird has recently been carrying me in my new The Island playthrough and because of him ive been able to get full ghillie extremely early on. Definetely reccommend taming.

So no ones gonna mention that you can use a fishing rod on its back (apparently).

To the people who are annoyed about the fish diet, Pelagornis can float on the water and swim with you on it instead of getting dismounted forcefully like any other flier. They can murder fish that way if you have a few minutes of your time and a good, lively pond or river.

Mine was killed by a Xiph (Ark Additions creature, mod) and she was the best otherwise.. thank you for reading and Midnight also thanks you for taking another one like her! 🪶

You can fish of the back of their saddle

This bird restore stamina very fast when in water up to let the others see this

The Pelagornis can get a lot of Organic Polymer from penguins.

Only eats fish, don't forget that

Since patch 2.25 released April 8th they now reduce the weight of polymer by 80% when in the Pelagornis and they harvest it 30% more now

Hate that you fall off of your pteranodon if you hit water? Not only do you stay on your pelagornis, but it lands on top of the water! Better yet it will swim!

Pelagornis' can land on both land and water, so they are very ideal for scouting as they can go anywhere, but they have a low movement speed and weight so not an all around good flier
