New Bug: Sea creatures do not recognize land creatures as threats and vice versa.
This may have been brought up already, if so I appologize as I did not see a thread on it:

I noticed this as of a patch or 2 ago. I was taming a shark right on the edge of the carnivore island and not once did the land creatures even try to attack the shark.

I had it placed in an iffy spot for tame, right near the beacon that lands on the north side. I was worried but they would spawn within 10 feet of the shark while I farmed prime and not try for it.

I coughed this up to luck, I usually do a good job with my defense of tames, this was spur of the moment, nothing there to defend. Hey great new toy!

But then I put the shark on aggressive in a small lagoon and it went ahead and attacked the fish and pirhana in the lagoon, and it accidentally hit a turtle.

The turtle attacked it multiple times and the shark did not defend itself.

Then I purposefully attacked a turtle and jumped off the neutral shark, same deal.

Then I hit a T rex that fell off the cliff into the lagoon, got it down to like 10% and jumped off to see what would happen, ended up having to pike the rex down as the shark made no move to attack.

I think its the same deal if you attack a sea critter with your land creature but have not tested that out. I have noticed that none of my creatures stop to try to kill pirhana that attack them anymore when following me.

Figured someone should know about this bug.

Sharks attack me all the time when in water and I see spinos killing water creatures (fish and Piranah) all the time. If my dino train is passing through the water sharks attack them too. However my land beasties have issues attacking water beasties unless I'm riding them, because of the swim/bounce thing they do they become very vulnerable to attack by water beasties.
