Ichthyornis
Creature Guide
BirdsOverview
The Ichthyornis (also known as Stealgull) is a small seabird creature in ARK: Survival Evolved. Resembling a modern seagull with prehistoric teeth, these noisy birds are found primarily along coastlines and near bodies of water. Despite their small size, they are infamous for their aggressive behavior - they will attack survivors to steal food and items, making them one of the most hated creatures in the game. Once tamed, they make loyal companions that can ride on your shoulder and bring you fish as gifts.

Ichthyornis surprised me by being a very loyal and very social creature, once tamed. It likes to ride on its owner
