Ferox
To tame a Ferox, feed it Element. It will transform into its large form and become aggressive. Survive until it reverts to small form, then feed it Element again. Repeat the cycle — each feeding adds taming progress. Higher-level Ferox require more Element and cycles.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Ferox as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the DMG group.
Its base Stamina of 100 gives it tires quickly. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it decent hitting power. At 55 base HP, the Ferox is extremely fragile. Weight capacity starts at 120, giving it average weight tolerance.
After taming, the Ferox earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. Killing a wild Ferox yields 0.5 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.51 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
