Like other [[Mandiblard]]s, Shearwigs have an affinity for chewing apart [[Bridge|stick bridges]], and they lose health while in water. The beasts fly up out of the water after losing half of their health, so this cannot kill them unless they bite onto a Pikmin while in the water. If they are hit directly with a Pikmin, they will die instantly, just like a [[Dwarf Bulborb]]. Another method is to throw [[Purple Pikmin]] onto a Shearwig; this tactic is rather effective, and will stun other Shearwigs in the area. | Like other [[Mandiblard]]s, Shearwigs have an affinity for chewing apart [[Bridge|stick bridges]], and they lose health while in water.
