Quick answer

There is no tested universal tier ranking here. A useful priority depends on what you need: hydration, fiber, healing, a research sample or safer observation.

Choose wildlife research by risk

The field surveys describe Lucuma Camilla as sociable and the Woodback Tortoise as docile. They describe Scorchweaver as hostile. These are useful approach cues, not a measured ranking of research rewards.

Why no S/A/B scores?

A score would imply comparative testing of outcomes, costs or efficiency that we have not performed. Use the plant reference and the creature reference to decide what serves your current objective.
