The Akbaba is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Spoiled Meat.
Once tamed, the Akbaba is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 35°C and 38°C.
