Mammoth
Mammoth Taming Calculator
To tame the Mammoth, you need to knock it unconscious first. Tranq Arrows, Tranq Darts, and Shocking Tranq Darts all work. The Mammoth loses Torpor at 0.1 per second while unconscious - stay on top of narcotics.

 Archelon Algae | 56:17 | 74 Lvl (224) 98.76% | |
 Crops | 3:43:27 | 62 Lvl (212) 83.36% | |

Taming Results
Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the Mammoth, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.
Required Narcotics
The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the Mammoth unconscious through the full taming duration. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. At 0.1 Torpor drain per second, apply narcotics proactively - a wakeup mid-tame wastes everything.
Starve & Torpor Timers
The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.

After taming, the Mammoth is primarily used for resource harvesting, excelling at gathering specific materials. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 8 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.62 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
