Fishing & Foraging
Select dinosaurs have the skills needed to do these tasks. These could be considered good skills to know for each of the below dinosaurs.
Ptera - Fishing
Galli - Foraging Burrows
Beipi - Foraging Riverbeds
FISHING
SCHOOLING FISH | FISH RINGS/FISH JUMPING
Fishing as a ptera can be challenging when you are a young juvi. Gauging your distance from the water surface and maintaining your altitude may end with you in the water and eaten by a deino.
Schooling Fish have a weight cap of 10kg
FISHING TUTORIAL
Use spacebar to maintain altitude while skimming (holding right click) over the water surface. Look for fish jumping into the air for optimal fishing spots. Release right click when indicated while skimming through the jumping fish to catch one.
Tip: You can eat fish while latched to a tree or rock.
FORAGING RIVERBEDS
FORAGING TUTORIAL
As a Beipi you can forage underwater for crabs. Swim to the bottom of the riverbed and press Crouch to latch onto the bottom of the riverbed. While latched on hold Q and begin scenting. Underwater you are given a specific icon that looks like bubbles. This is pointing you in the direction of a crab. Walk up to the bubbles still awhile latched and then Hold E and begin to dig. Can be a bit difficult to find the right position. Once you are done the crab will float to the surface. You may need to attack it so it is grab-able.
On the image you can see two things:
Bubble Icon - located on the navigation bar at the top
Bubbles- Visual indicators of bubbles showing exact location of the crab and where to dig. (Can be kinda hard to see)

FORAGING BURROWS
Psitt & Rabbit Burrows
Certain dinos can dig through burrows and scare food to the surface. Make sure your quick to grab the prey before it escapes.
Galli can hold Q key will sniff out burrows where you can dig up (Hold E) Frogs, Crabs, and Compys
