Can mutated dinos spawn in the wild?

[Asher Paradox]

Im a new player and dont know much about mutations. Ive tried doing research, but no one seems to talk abould wild mutations. The reason i ask, is i found a bold, solid cherry pink/red Para in the wild and i tamed it. But people only ever talk about breeding them. Can anyone confirm that I'm not the only one to have this happen?

The extinction event seems to still be active, normally you dont get mutations or mutation colors in the wild (the event only adds extra colors you normaly only get via breeding).
You can check this in there inventory, forgot what the button is called but should be on the bottom of the middle window. It will show you the father and mother breeding lines, and wild dino's will always show 0/20 on both lines.

Only expection to that are i think Wyverns and Rock drakes, not to sure about Wyverns but Rock drakes was confirmed at least to have the possibility to have a color mutation.

Thank you so much, this clears things up a lot. Sounds like the Tech event thig then.
