ARK adds a nice selection of dinosaurs into the game. However, so many of these critters are well known and common. Almost everyone can recognize a T-Rex or a Triceratops. That's what I wanted to change when I made this dinosaur mod. I wanted to add dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures into ARK that weren't as common. From obscure creatures such as Massospondylus to fairly recognizable Ornithocheirus, there's a wide variety!

Each creature features a unique model as well as custom icons for craftable foods, saddles, and dinosaur icons! These exciting dinosaurs have unique abilities, new animations, and breathe some new life into ARK! Watch these beautifully crafted creatures wander around your ARKs, and see how wonderful it is to learn about more dinosaurs!

By default, ARK will not allowed modded creatures to be released from cryopods or downloaded from an obelisk, transmitter, etc. on Aberration. If you are using Dino Storage V2, however, Lethal has an INI option which allows you to release specific creatures from a Soul Trap.

[DinoStorage2]

Please note that the above is an example for adding Prehistoric Beasts creatures which naturally spawn on Aberration to this list. If you already use this mod and have this option in your GameUserSettings.INI file, simply copy everything after "IncludeClass=" and paste it into your already existing configuration. You do NOT ever put two instances of the same option.

N/A

Ache-ah-raptor

Pick up with E. Grants the user immunity from the Extinction Wasteland buff, and if you are riding a creature, they do more damage to corrupted dinosaurs

These small feathery buddies are only found on Extinction. The same element that gave them their abilities also can be seen on their body!

Acheroraptor can only be found on Extinction

Extinction: City and Sunken Forest

Scorched Anzu
X-Anzu

Ann-zoo

Left-Click: Bite
Right-Click: Roar (depending on if you are moving or standing still, a different roar animation/ sound will play)
C: Claw Kick
Lft Ctrl: If you have the tek saddle on, this will enable the tek ability. Requires Element

Wild Anzu can be found scattered across the ARKs. Their aggressive temperment, on par with Therizino, means that wild creatures will not attack them. In addition, they fiercly guard their nests, to the point of death if need be. They will only get up if they see a player nearby, and then will strike!

If you can manage to snag an egg from an Anzu nest, then you will have an eccelent caregiver. Anzu's natural parental instincts take over, and assist your tames! Feeding them, and caring for them!

Anzu are found in open or forested areas.

Anzu cannot be tamed using traditional knockout or passive feeding methods. Instead, you must make your way to where they spawn and steal an egg from their nest. Unlike most egg snatch creatures in ARK, every Anzu has an equal chance to produce a nest and they can spawn anywhere an Anzu happens to be. You can find a video on how to tame and use them can be found here. Good luck hunting!

Only maps with Wyverns or Magmasaurus have Dracovenator. (IE Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, Valguero)

To tame Dracovenator, you need fertilized eggs. Magmasaur eggs are the best, followed by Ice wyvern, then Poison/Fire/Lightning, then Crystal wyvern eggs. Other then the special food, it is a traditional KO tame. They have a high amount of torpor, and it drains quickly, so make sure to bring narcotics.

X-Giant Sea Slug

While they cannot be ridden, Giant Sea Slugs are useful because they produce Squiddige, a valuable resource which happens to be the only food Hainosaurus will eat.

Wild Giant Sea Slugs, when taking damage, deal torpor to its attacker.

The Giant Sea Slug can be found along the shorelines as well as the bottom of the ocean floor on most ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ARK maps. There is one instance of a popular ARK mod map, The Volcano, where they will not spawn due to that particular map not using traditional water spawners. In order to add them to your world you would need to modify your INI code for that map.

Alpha Hainosaurus
Alpha X-Hainosaurus
X-Hainosaurus

Hane-o-saurus

Left-Click: Bite
Right-Click: Echolocation

Hainosaurus is very strong, fast and unlike Mosasaurus, immune to shocks from Cnidaria and Electrophorus. It has a devastating bite and its echolocation ability can be used to find nearby targets. While it may seem to beat Mosasaurus in every way, its downside is that once tamed the only food it will consume is Squiddige, an item produced by Giant Sea Slugs.

The massive Hainosaurus can be found in the deep ocean. There is a 5% chance that when one spawns it will become an Alpha Hainosaurus.

Aberrant Kelenken
R-Kelenken
X-Kelenken

Ku-len-kin

Left-Click: Bite
Right-Click: Talon Stomp (land only), Talon Swipe (air only)
C: Roar
X: Beak Click
Space: Jump, Glide (air only)

Kelenken is a very aggressive carnivore and is typically found with Terror Birds by its side. The bite attack does decent damage and the land talon stomp is very fast but is ineffective against creatures of larger size as its damage output is based on the victims drag weight. If you jump and use the talon swipe attack you will do bleed damage to your enemies.

The roar is purely cosmetic but performing its beak click ability will give Kelenken a "Looking for Targets" buff for a short period of time. This vision outlines players and creatures within a specific range similar to how a tek helmet functions. Any nearby tamed or allied Kelenken as well as Terror Bird will also receive this special vision and any tamed creature within their vision range will be given a "You've Been Targeted" buff to let them know they are being tracked. Creatures with this targeted buff receive an additional 20% damage while it is active.

A video guide on Kelenken can be found here.

Kelenkens are found in the Redwoods alongside Terror Birds. Their Aberrant version, however, will spawn in groups of two or three since Terror Birds are not native to this map.

To tame this creature it must be below 25% health. You will know it has reached this requirement because red particles will glow around its head and it will perform an animation. At this point you will need to use a ballista turret and hit Kelenken with a chain bola. Once immobilized, walk up and repeatedly feed it fermented sweet melons until it becomes unconscious.

As long as you continue to feed it fermented sweet melons the bola buff will continue to add additional time. If Kelenken gets free from the chain bola, as long as it has the red glow around its head you can simply use the ballista turret again and continue the process. If the red glow is no longer visible, just start the entire process over again by getting it below 25% health.

Once successfully knocked out, simply place food inside its inventory.

Map-oo-saur-us

Left-Click: Bite

Mapusaurus is a ferocious carnivore. While not nearly the size of Giganotasaurus, Mapusaurus is far larger then Rex or Neovenator. This size also comes with strong jaws, able to tear through flesh and bone of any creature. Be careful, as their prey drive is so strong they can abandon their rider in favor of killing.

Mapusaurus has the ability to roar, but it is purely cosmetic.

Mapusaurus loves to hunt sauropods of many kinds, thus, they usually can be found near them! Not many will spawn at once, as they are dangerous!

You need a catapolt and plenty of boulders. If you've ever tamed a rock golem, titanosaur, or karkinos then you'll be an expert! Bring along a snow owl, as sometimes they need to be healed during this process. Or, bring a dead body for them to eat and that'll work too!

Trap them, pelt them with rocks, and boom! You've KOd them. Mapu prefers exceptional (gold) kibble, or mutton.

In the wild, Massospondylus are neutral towards players and other creatures. Once tamed, they are quite efficient at harvesting berries and can harvest wood as well as thatch. With Fermented Sweet Melons inside their inventory, Massospondylus has the ability to use its ranged barf attack which will pierce armor of enemy players and can damage structures.

You will find Massospondylus roaming around any map which has a desert region.

Massospondylus is a passive tame, but you do not walk up to it and feed it. Instead, drop a melon on the ground and it will consume it. Wait a little while longer and it will perform an animation and make a noise to let you know that it is hungry again. Be quick, though!

If Massospondylus goes too long without food (once the taming process is started) it will become angry and turn aggressive towards the player trying to tame it.

Once tamed, you can enable their tame helper ability. This makes a dinosaur you are taming drop food faster, resulting in taming faster! When wearing their saddle bags, they also can craft jerky for you, and many consumables spoil slower!

Neimongosaurus are curious little dinosaurs. Mostly driven by their desire to snack, they tend to seek out survivors and their tames. Whole alone they aren't very bold, in a group they tend to get aggressive!

Left-Click: Bite / Chomp Prey
Right-Click: Grab, Stop Chomping Prey, Release Prey
C: Roar
Alt Fire: Activate Tek Saddle

Neovenator is an all-around great creature to tame. Their damage is on par with Rex, but they are much faster and more maneuverable. In the wild you will often find Neovenator holding smaller creatures in its mouth chomping on it, which works the same as Megalosaurus. A Neovenator, however, is much smarter. If they are chewing prey and get attacked, they will drop the creature from their mouth and shift its focus to anything attacking it.

Note: Due to how strong Alphas are, they are unable to do the grab attack.

If a player gets grabbed by a Neovenator they can break free by simply dealing a certain amount of damage to it. You better be quick, as its chomping attack shreds armor!

Once you unlock the Neovenator Tek Saddle you are given the ability to activate its special ability using Element as fuel. Unlike other ARK Tek Saddles, this one does not shoot projectiles. Instead, Neovenator is given predator vision, which works exactly as it does for a Snow Owl. This vision allows you to easily track nearby enemies at the cost of a little Element.

Neovenator has the ability to roar, but it is purely cosmetic.

The dangerous Neovenator can be found in numerous areas across the ARKs.

There is a 5% chance when Neovenator spawns it will become an Alpha variant.

The Island: Grasslands, Monster Island, Mountains
Valguero: Chalk Hills, Grasslands, Mountains

Neovenator has a unique taming method. You must allow Neovenator to running full speed at you and use a ballista turret with chain bolas to immobilize it. Quickly run up to it with Coagulated Kibble in the last slot of your hotbar and press E to ride it. As soon as you mount Neovenator you will be given a prompt in the bottom right corner of your screen (like Equus) to press E again, which will feed it. From this point it will tame exactly like a horse, running wild where the player has no control over where Neovenator will go.

After a period of time it will continue to give you feeding prompts. When it is finished taming you will be dismounted as riding a tamed Neovenator requires a saddle.

Neovenator will only consume Coagulated Kibble during the taming process.

A video guide on taming Neovenator can be found here.

Ornithocheirus is a good all around flyer. It moves like a Tapejara, has the ability to glide like a Griffin and has great stamina. When riding this creature, once it gets below 20% stamina it has a chance to receive a buff called "Endurance", which resets its stamina to 50%.

Not only can Ornithocheirus swim in the water, when it is over water it can surf the waves, causing it to move faster, and it gives it a better chance to gain its "Endurance" buff!

Ornithocheirus can be found above the Ocean waters similar to Pelagornis. Due to them being very aggressive, they will sometimes make their way to land.

There is a 5% chance when Ornithocheirus spawns it will become an Alpha variant.

Post-o-suchus

Left-Click: Bite

Wild Postosuchus are very aggressive and will often be found chasing after prey. However, there is a small chance you will stumble across one resting by laying down in the wild.

Once tamed, Postosuchus are most useful in packs. The Alpha of the pack can roar to initiate a buff called "Bloodthirsty Howl", giving a 10% damage boost and doubling the speed of pack members for a short time. The Postosuchus is also a useful creature because if you'll notice in its mouth there is a green particle which we have deemed "Stink Breath". This buff protects both wild and tamed Postosuchus from being targeted by the following creatures:

- Arthropleura
- Insects
- Leech
- Microraptor
- Pegomastax
- Purlovia
- Raptor
- Ravager
- Seeker

Postosuchus are commonly found in the Redwoods, but due to their aggressiveness you will sometimes find them wandering into nearby areas.

It moves much faster than larger than the Brontosaurus and doesn't lose much efficiency in its ability to harvest valuable resources such as berries, wood and thatch.

Sigh-am-o-saurus

Left-Click: Bite
Right-Click: Claw (land only)
C: Roar, Berzerk Roar
Alt Fire: Tail Swipe
Space: Dash Foward (water only)

Siamosaurus is a fairly complex creature. In the wild they are neutral with the exception of a few select creatures: Anglerfish, Cnidaria, Coelacanth, Piranha and Sabertooth Salmon. They have a devastating bite, a very quick and powerful claw attack along with a tail swipe that deals a good amount of impulse (knockback) to smaller sized creatures.

You will notice quickly that this creature does not move very well on land. But it is, however, very graceful in the water. As if their immunity to Cnidaria and Electrophorus wasn't enough to make them a desirable water mount, they are also efficient at gathering Angler Gel, Bio Toxin, Black Pearls and Silica Pearls. While inside its inventory, Siamosaurus is able to carry a larger amount of Black Pearls and Silica Pearls due to a significant weight reduction.

When riding a Siamosaurus for the first time you will notice at the bottom of your screen there are three new UI interfaces. One is a percentage meter, one bar says "Use Angler Gel to Activate" and the third says "Flashover Strength" with stats listed above it.

Let's begin with the percentage meter on the far left, which is simply used to control the strength of the land tail swipe attack. The longer you hold alt fire, Siamosaurus will have more power and knockback will have behind it when doing the tail attack. The other two meters work in multiple ways. First and foremost, the bar on the left is an indicator for how to use the ability. As it says, if you use Angler Gel it will activate. To use Angler Gel, place some in the last slot of your hotbar and press zero. Doing this will begin the process, which we've called "Flashover".

This part of the ability works similar to Ferox. You will see one bar has now turned into a timer and another displays the strength bonus your Siamosaurus is receiving. Above the strength bar you will also notice the stats have changed. The more you feed it Angler Gel, the stronger it will become but it will get increasingly less time with the buff. You can feed Siamosaurus a max of 40 times before it will reach 100% strength and at this point it will enter berzerk mode.

In berzerk mode, Siamosaurus will deal 150% damage, gain 5 health per second and its speed will be increased to 125%. At this point you will notice you have a very limited amount of time. You can, however, make good use of the additional 10 times you can feed Siamosaurus a piece of Angler Gel in this stage. When you feed it Angler Gel in berzerk mode, the closer the clock is to 0:00 the more additional bonus time you will earn with the buff.

Once your timer has run out you will enter the sizzled out phase. During this time, Siamosaurus has become worn out and will now need to re-energize itself. Once this debuff is given you will notice your stats have now received a significant penalty. Siamosaurus will now only deal 75% damage, its speed will be decreased to 50% and it will lose 10 stamina per second. The amount of time it takes you to re-energize is completely dependent on how many times you fed your Siamosaurus a piece of Angler Gel. There is quite a large difference in the amount of time it takes to re-energize between feeding it a few Angler Gel and feeding it 50 times.

While Siamosaurus can roar, it is purely cosmetic.

Siamosaurus is a piscivore, meaning it will only eat fish meat (cooked, prime, raw etc).

A video guide on Siamosaurus can be found here.

Siamosaurus are commonly found on the coastlines, but due to their aggressiveness towards certain creatures they will sometimes wander out into the water on their own. You will find them naturally spawn in the deeper parts of the Ocean as well. Alpha Siamosaurus are limited to only have a chance to spawn in the ocean waters, not along the beach.

There is a 5% chance when Siamosaurus spawns it will become an Alpha variant.

Aberrant Tsintaosaurus
E-Tsintaosaurus
X-Tsintaosaurus

Sin-tau-saurus

Left-Click: Bite
Right-Click: Roar
Space: Jump

Tsintaosaurus is not a fighter, so do not expect the bite to deal much damage. It does, however, have the ability to harvest berries and crops efficiently.

The Tsintaosaurus roar gives it a "Looking for Danger" buff which lasts 15 seconds. During this period of time, if Tsintaosaurus gets within range of an enemy player, alpha creature of any level or a high level wild creature that is a carnivore or an aggressive herbivore such as Therizinosaurus, it will receive an additional buff. This buff is called "Danger Detected" which gives Tsintaosaurus a speed boost and a blue screen effect will be displayed on the rider HUD.

A video guide on Tsintaosaurus can be found here.

Tsintaosaurus are intended to be mounts for new players, so of course they naturally spawn in a part of the map where every player begins their journey.

To tame one, you'll need a good quality assault rifle, and plenty of ammo. I'd also suggest using a taming pen of some type, as to avoid getting eaten. Taming has 3 steps. First, you need to damage Yangchuanosaurus enough that it will do a heal roar. Once it does this, shoot it with the gun. Only shots that hit while its healing will increase torpor. Repeat these two steps over and over, until Yangchuanosaurus passes out. Then you are free to feed it kibble! They prefer the higest tier kibble; Extraordinary kibble!
