Variant
After hatching or birth, the baby Lost Cryolophosaurus matures at a glacially slow pace - plan for a multi-day commitment, reaching adulthood in about 7 days and 17 hours at 1x maturation. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
The Lost Cryolophosaurus's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~1111 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~74h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~93h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Lost Cryolophosaurus gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.

Planning a mass raise? The Lost Cryolophosaurus raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~1111 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.
Raising multiple Lost Cryolophosaurus simultaneously? Set the dino count and the calculator scales food requirements automatically. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

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.
ARK: Survival Ascended features the Lost Cryolophosaurus as a carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the Variant category.
Health-wise, the Lost Cryolophosaurus sits at 500 base, making it moderately tough. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. Stamina sits at 350 base, providing solid stamina reserves. A base Weight of 500 means an enormous weight pool.
The Lost Cryolophosaurus roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. Defeating one in the wild grants 30 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.94 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
