If you are having trouble with Dino’s at the start and want to tame a Dino to help protect you but a trike is proving to be to hard just look for one of these turtles and then knock them out and if one is not enough get more. They can be like your living turtle wall to stop raptors and even spinos and rexes from just easily walking in and killing you before you can even run

When walking a carbonemys backwards towards a turret it takes less damage towards the carbonemys , making draining a turret more efficient.

Before knocking out a turtle to tame it, magnifying glass it to see the base health so you know that you will get a good health turtle.

When backing it up to drain turrets, set it to follow something that's in a safe place before you hop on. That way if you get sniped off the saddle your turtle will follow whatever animal to safety.

Knocking these guys out can be a roller coaster usually slingshots are the best idea for beginners because you shoot them and when they start running away you knock them out with a club (this does not work with arrows and bows but you can make them sleep with Tranqs)

The carbonemys is perhaps one of the best creatures to tame in the early game, and provides decent protection against dilos and lone raptors. The carbonemys can easily be knocked out with a slingshot, and even a survivor with base movement speed can outrun one, making it one of the easiest tames for the early game. Not only can it carry a lot, it can be used a bait for taming (or escaping) big carnivores that would love to eat you and you (amazing pink dodo) for a snack. PROS Amazing for early game Bulky Can carry lots of stuff An easy source of meat, keratin, hide, and XP for early game players CONS Really slow on land Gets stuck on stuff a lot Makes annoying wailing noises all the time

When trying to tame jump on its back so it can't damage you and it can't run away so fast effective knockout

Due to a recent update of turrets are set to players only the turtle loses its full potential as the turrets will target the person riding it rather than the turtle

Dank Tanks

Ride it backwards towards auto turrets to drain the ammunition.
