I find it easier to just investigate them before clicking capturing. Though this can only happen if you're the one to instigate the actions. I kinda wish they'd move the suprise bar so you can check the stats of the creature if they pounce on you.best way to get a harpy/bat without grungy is breeding it out (imo grungy shouldn't be an inheritable trait). get some throwaway nephelym without grungy and keep breeding until you get a harpy/bat without grungy. You CAN breed out grungy with two nephelym that have grungy but the chances of it not passing down are even slimmer. its a pain to get rid off but its possible.
