Tamed carnos are excellent almost all around: their health, attack speed, and base damage allow you to take on most of the creatures on the island, including Rexes and Alpha Raptors. Having a mated pair greatly strengthens this quality. They run fairly fast and can carry a lot, making great transport mounts. They are a fairly good harvester of meat and prime meat.
Their only real disadvantage is a slow stamina regen, even when stood completely still.

Rated number one for gathering prime on wiki

They need a TLC like to get the message out

Doesn't get stuck as easily as the larger carnivores

My level 223 carno regularly kills level 150 Spinos, therizinosaurus, and rexes. Sometimes multiple at the same time. Tame a high level and get your melee around 500%+ and you have an alpha killer.
