Argentavis

The Argentavis is one of the creatures in Pixark.

Wild
Wild Argentavis has little interest in other animals, and only attacks those that get too close.

Tame
Although a trained Argentavis is slower than a Pteranodon, its great strength can launch humans and mid-sized creatures into the air. Its high stamina also makes it suitable for long distance travel.

Subspecies
The lack of food of the desert biome has forced the Argentavis to change its hunting patterns; the desert subspecies will grab onto prey with either its claws or its more powerful beak. The color and crest are also visually distinguished from its non-subspecies counterpart.

Handbook Description
Argentavis, it's weight can reach 70kg and its wingspan can reach 7 meters. It is the ancestor of some large raptors.

Appearance
The Argentavis is a large, red-orange bird with a fan-shaped tail and crest. It is easily spotted because of its bright colors.

A subspecies, the Argentavis (Desert) is plumed with dark red and purple feathers.





Behavior
Tends to fly in the sky but occasionally lands to regain stamina before taking to the air once again.
