"Many Terror Birds and feathered Raptors of menacing size have inhabited the islands for ages, but a colossus such as the Dromornis stirtoni is a different story. Standing similar in height to the Carno, with wings not visible through its thick plumage, it's not hard to see where this monstrosity gets it's nickmane from, the Demon Duck of Doom. Being very heavy set, this duck of demon is too heavy for any version of flying or floating. Instead, this monstrosity insisted on playing water sports.
When running at full speed they could use their webbed feet to actually run on water some distance until they fell into a duck slide. Further to this they have been seen jumping out of the water and diving under the waves. Timed correctly, they show great manoeuvrability and speed like a dolphin, able to speed dive past great water predators, or leap onto boats.
As for taming goes, the friendly attention of these is hard to get when they are adults, but when they are younger they appear quite susceptible to shiny trophies. Perhaps if we entice a young one with our collection of hunted trophies we can gain its trust and respect as a hunter."
Abilities and details are all speculative, but I'd love to see some uses for the Rex arms and Argi talons besides for going into the boss fights. After all this is a sort of "prove your worth" but to a creature, not to the obelisks terminal. Or even if you feed them to this guy as an adult it gets buffs or group/Yutty styled fun.
Just a nod to the big birds out there, gotta keep those reptiles in check
