They don't really attack you directly, but they can be a nuisance if you're trying to farm. * Seagull: These guys don't actually attack the [Player](https://raft.fandom.com/wiki/Player "Player"), but they *will* try to steal your crops! Keep an eye on your farm plots. * Rhino Shark: This one's a bit special – it doesn't take damage from [Weapons](https://raft.fandom.com/wiki/Weapons "Weapons"). You'll need to find other ways to deal with it, likely through environmental hazards or specific mission objectives. Remember, knowing your enemy is key to survival. Good luck out there!
