* AcrophobicBird: Skya, a Brachiosaurus analogue and by far the tallest character, is afraid of heights. She explains that she can handle her own height thanks to typically being firmly on the ground, but has trouble once she gets higher and can fall.

* CompressedVice: Skya shows a somewhat [[{{Irony}} ironic]] [[{{AcrophobicBird}} fear of heights]] in "Desert" that threatens the gang's plan to find a way out of the desert by building a tower for her to look from. This did not come up in "Scrapadactyls" which featured a similar "build a staircase for Skya to climb up to reach a tall height" plan.
