🦴 Full scientific profileYes, with Beachcomber: this ability improves land speed, time allowed on land, and stamina regen on land. Without it, Kaiwhekea is limited to coastal edges. On La Meute QC, Beachcomber is almost mandatory for transiting between Riparia's waterways without losing too much health.
Kaiwhekea has 5/5 water speed — same maximum score as Eurhinosaurus. The difference: Kaiwhekea is described as "slightly slower" but with better beaching endurance. With Streamlined (+10%), Strong Flippers (+30% stamina regen in water), and Barrel Roll (offensive roll), it excels at aquatic dodge-and-pursue combat.
Yes — with its default Fisher metabolism, Kaiwhekea eats both meat and fish, letting it attack land creatures at the water's edge. With Scavenger, it adds carrion and bones, though hunger and thirst drain faster. On La Meute QC, ambushing herbivores drinking at the water's edge is Kaiwhekea's natural playstyle.
