If you want the stuff from their dams...don't tame them cause they won't build any more dams!
Castoroides

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Castoroides in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
They know longer cut the weight of wood by 1/4. They reduced it to 1/2.
Idk if I’m just an idiot and haven’t seen this on Dododex before, but if you trap a beaver near water with a wooden platform, four wooden doorways, and two wooden ramps, don’t tame it and it will build dams in it. Up so newbies see
If you carry a wild Castoroides and put it in your waters it will make its own dam. Easy materials in bulk!
Do not leave unattended the torpor goes down at a monsterous rate
Be warned!! I’ve seen 2-3 of these take on a Spino and kill it!
To get stuff frot their dams place a sleeping bag, transfer the whole dam inventory then let them kill you. After respawning retake your stuff again, they dont attack you anymore.
Thumb up pls,for help.
These things are amazing! If you find a wild one, then that’s great because you can raid it’s dam for some cementing paste. Now, if you tame one, the beaver sadly won’t make any dams. But, you can now harvest a bunch of wood with it if you put it on wandering or use a…
These things are amazing! If you find a wild one, then that’s great because you can raid it’s dam for some cementing paste. Now, if you tame one, the beaver sadly won’t make any dams. But, you can now harvest a bunch of wood with it if you put it on wandering or use a saddle. If you think it’s a bit dangerous running on the ground, let me introduce you to one of the greatest things in this game for gathering, auto-harvest. Just get an argentavis and it’s saddle, grab a tamed beaver, and go up to a tree and let the beaver hit it. ( Put on wandering for the beaver for it to work) This is way safer than being on the ground. To get way more wood, put some levels into melee and even weight if you want to. Auto-harvest also works with ankylosaurus and doedicurus.
My last tip was on the ichthyosaurus

Strong as hell, especially in packs. Don't put such nice things in your dam if you don't want me to raid it. Jerks.
If you happen to spot our home,
You'd better leave it alone.
We hold our stuff dear,
So you're not welcome here.
We'll bite you down to the bone.
One of the hardest limericks I've ever written. If only it had a duck bill and a fedora...

Wild castoroides sometimes build dams which can contain cementing paste, wood, silica pearls, rare flowers and mushrooms. But accessing the inventory of a dam will make the beavers angry so watch out!
This creature has a bonus where all wood placed on him will way significantly less. So Pitt all your wood on him
THESE SPAWN IN ASGARD ON FJORDUR!!!
There is in fact a slot limit! All dinos have 300 slots available
My helpful neighbors. They always shared their cementing paste with me.
These guys are persistent. I stole some mushrooms, and I ran to my base. Ten minutes later I look outside and its standing outside my door...
Seems to harvest more wood per hit than a mammoth, but the mammoth has better weight reduction, so just get your hairy-elephant to follow your splinter-mouse. Now admire the open plain where a proud forest once stood and laugh uncomfortably.
Taming these takes so ‘dam’ long
Step 1 find a dam
Step 2 grab all the cementing paste ( useful for later )
Step 3 trap or take castaroides with argenttavis or a trap
Step 4 knock unconscious and feed
Step 5 use the cementing paste and other materials for saddle
Step 6 tame and ride
Step 7 hit a tree…

Step 8 your welcome 👍
A castoroid will collect wood from trees if it's on wandering.
