When knocking these guys out they sound absolutely pitiful...

By far the best polymer gatherer for polymer farms

Put ramps and some ceilings on a raft. Wait for it to stop on the water and start paddling around. Drive he raft directly towards it while it's facing u. Scoop it up and trank it. You have to remember not to move the raft once it's unconscious or it will slide off 👍

They are like pteranodons but can swim and slightly have more weight storage and they are just good for longer travel’s in early game

Just bola it and beat it with a club

Probably one of my favorite flyers,

if you lvl movement and weight they are more versatile than any other flyer as that they can swim on the top of the water. And fast at that.

I only wish that you had allitle more visibility below you, in the water, as things such as jellies can sneak up on you. Or maybe, better yet, the Pelly could sound some sort of alarm when something other than a Coelacanth swims near it.

Making it a proximity alarm when at your base!

Always come prep with raw fish meat and alot of it the one i tried to tame rlly greedy

Really underrated guy my pela got me through gen 1 in the ocean area (just starting out) I was able to easily tame and then traverse across islands, and to get fish just jump in ocean and after killing fish use Helena to tp back until you get the right island.

If you land on water and your weight is too much then you will become drenched and you wont be able to fly until it dries.

These guys are amazing. They would be perfect if they would air-drop. I had one kill an argy, and he flew fast around it, pecking at it before the argy had a chance to kill him and over time lowered his health until he was murdered. Something any mid-game survivor needs in their tribe!!

Hi 👋🏾 so here is how to tame one i use crossbow and tranqs which really works so if you see one (they usually stay near the water but not swamps) shoot with tranqs biotoxin if you have it and THEY ONLY EAT FISH regular meat will not work EVEN WHEN TAMED so since they are usually close to the water hop in that water and get some fish use a rod If you can and make sure you have some sort of narcotics

They can also work as a boat to get to herb Island i do that

I think it needs to be addressed that these birds are excellent at killing jellyfish. Their increase attack works on them. You one shot them.

They are so good at getting biotoxin

One Pelagornis can get you SO much organic polymer if and only if you kill the non-adult Kairukus. On my rates (2× harvest and 2× resource hp) I got roughly 230 organic polymer from just one juvenile Kairuku. The fact it also has insane weight reduction for the poly makes it optimal, and while you might say "The dangers of the ice biome are on your tail," then remember that a Pelagornis can just sit on water, which is where most ice biome creatures fail due to their immensely slow swimming speed, so you always have a save zone.

Will gather much more polymer from baby kairuku than adults. Does not gather all that well from mantis. Better off using a wyvern or griffin killing mantis to get the most polymer or maybe start a baby kairuku farm.

Better the PT it can go and both land sea and air I've also been able to travel all over the island because ov it's diversity

They can sit on water and regain stamina, but be careful since hostile creatures (megalodons, jellyfish, piranha's, ...) will still aggro on the pelagornis.

Never let any aggressive Dino anywhere near it when it’s knocked out even a dilo will make it go from 100% effectiveness to a 20 or 30 it sucks don’t let it happen to you

Weight reduction for organic polymer does not work in the mobile version, unless it’s just me...

Currently, at least for me, pelagornis organic polymer weight reduction and bonus gathering doesnt work. May be different for others.
