Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Astral Mammoth babies through all three growth stages. Budget ~494 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Astral Mammoth babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
Breeding produces live offspring - no egg management needed. Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.
Full maturation from baby to adult takes ~3 days and 10 hours (1x rate), progressing over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.
Offspring inherit parental stats and have a small chance to mutate, gaining +2 levels in a random stat. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
The Astral Mammoth's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~494 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~33h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~41h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprinting during maturation provides permanent stat bonuses. At 100% imprint, the Astral Mammoth gains 30% bonus damage and resistance when ridden by the imprinter. Keep various kibble types on hand, as imprint requests are randomized between cuddles, walks, and kibble feeding.
The Astral Mammoth is a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Variant category.
At 17,500 base HP, the Astral Mammoth is one of the toughest creatures in the game. Melee starts at 100% - decent hitting power that scales with level-ups. Stamina sits at 420 base, providing solid stamina reserves. It carries 500 base Weight - an enormous weight pool.
The Astral Mammoth roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. A wild Astral Mammoth is worth 900 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.62 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
