Dinopithecus
To tame a Dinopithecus, find the Alpha of the pack (identifiable by its glowing aura) and kill all other pack members nearby. Reduce the Alpha's health below 85%, then passively feed it Exceptional Kibble, Raw Mutton, or Raw Prime Meat until tamed.
Take a look at this short video guide on how to tame a Dinopithecus.

Found throughout the ARKs, the Dinopithecus is a tamable, omnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Climber group.
Starting at 775 Health, it's quite durable. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Dinopithecus has decent hitting power. Stamina sits at 800 base, providing outstanding staying power. It carries 350 base Weight - a solid weight pool.
After taming, the Dinopithecus earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 3 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.68 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
