The Pelican is a tier 6 animal. It is based on its real life counterpart, the American White Pelican, Pelecanus erythrorhynchos.

Mechanics[]

Any Tier 5 animal can evolve into a pelican.
- 24,000 XP is required for a seagull to evolve into a pelican.
Pelicans evolve into any of the tier 7 animals. 30,000 XP is required for a pelican to evolve.
Pelicans drop meat upon death.
In Free for all mode, friendly fire is turned off for pelicans meaning that pelicans cannot damage other pelicans. Pelicans cannot also damage Seagulls in FFA, putting pelican at a disadvantage for hunting.

Abilities[]

Passive Abilities[]

You can fly as long as you are in the air. When you are in the water, you will lose oxygen and float upwards automatically.
You can walk on land and all other surfaces that are not under the water.
You are slower when moving downward while underwater.
Is not slowed down by coral fans or table corals.

Active Abilites[]

- Click to release the swallowed animal
Charge boosting while walking causes you to jump. You will jump higher the more you charge a boost. This does not consume a boost.

Suitable Biomes[]

The suitable biome for the pelican is the ocean surface and the swamp surface.
- If a pelican enters the water, it will lose oxygen.
- If a pelican enters the arctic surface, it will lose temperature.
- If a pelican enters the deeeep, it will lose oxygen and pressure.
- If a pelican enters the deep swamp in the team FFA map ffa_mrbirdyflee, it will lose pressure.

Diet[]

This is a complete list of food that pelicans can eat.

Name	Can be eaten by	XP	Description

Bubble	All animals that breathe air	0	Affected by gravity, floats upwards. Spawns out of the window of the shipwreck. Replenishes oxygen to animals that breathe air.
Bird Poop	All except for lamprey and seagull	10	Affected by gravity. Automatically spawns below any seagull every 10 seconds.
Plankton	All	250	Spawns in the ocean.
Dam Food	Tier 1 to tier 7 and tiger shark	35	Spawns underneath beaver dams.
Ice	All	250	Spawns in the arctic and deeeep.

Meat	All	1000	Spawns where an animal dies (tier 2 to tier 10 animals only). The amount of meat that spawns depends on what animal it was.
Anglerfish Bait	All Animals except for the Anglerfish who spawned it	0	Spawns infront of an Anglerfish when it is stationary (as its passive ability). No fixed look, resembles the last food the Anglerfish eats. It does nothing too, but the Anglerfish will deal twice as much damage (100x2, therefore 200) to the animal that ate it

Skins[]

Skins are cosmetics used to change an animal's looks, or sometimes, an animal’s biome or size statistics slightly. The table below shows the list of approved skins that can be used for the Pelican.

Realistic skins can be used in every time of the year. They are mostly based on real-life species, or adjectives such as 'Battle-Scarred' or 'Dark'.
