If you find a low level and you have a stone axe and a bow with some arrows, you can kill them for early game hide and keratin! It's very good for when you need to get a lot of hide early game, and you can't just kill everything in sight for it. Same with the keratin, you can't just kill a bunch of stegos for it and harvest it with a wolf or something. They are very good for early game hide grinding for parasaur saddles, stego, trike or raptor saddles, and more. -ThornTheRex
Great early tame to keep around waters you’ll have to cross often - just level health and melee and park it in the water (as they can’t drown) in neutral and they’ll draw in and kill any piranhas that spawn nearby. Presumably possible to do in the oceans with Megalodons as well since they’re drawn to tamed creatures.
