ARK: Survival Ascended features the Thylacoleo as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the DMG category.

Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. The Thylacoleo has 700 base Health - quite durable. With 400 base Stamina, the Thylacoleo has solid stamina reserves. It carries 400 base Weight - a solid weight pool.

To tame the Thylacoleo, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Extraordinary Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.

As a tame, the Thylacoleo is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. A wild Thylacoleo is worth 5 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.5 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
