Remember that one of the biggest advantages of riding a Pela is that you don't have to stop moving to regain stamina when near water. Simply land in the water and keep moving. As long as you are not sprinting, you will regain stamina. Their normal swim is fairly fast, so most stuff can't catch you. Any threat that starts catching up can be lost by a short sprint or just flying a short distance and landing again. Once your stamina is regen'ed, take back to the air. Just watch for jellyfish and you are good.

I've noticed strange things are going on in the water on The Center map.
Bagers and wolverines are from the weasel family
