So, for those who don’t know, wild beavers make dams, and in those dams, you can find tonnes of wood, rare mushroom, cementing paste, and rare flowers. On the island, they spawn in 2 spots near the redwoods, one being the river from the redwoods to Far’s Peak, and the other being the massive circle pond near the volcano.

This sucker wakes up really quick, so bring lots of extra narcotics. I usually bring double what this app says I need.
Are easy to knock out just stand on an elevated position and fire away
So I decided to tame a 110 beaver at 1 in the morning and the wait time was 3hrs and 12 mins because it was 1.5x taming and the torpor was 10 mins and so I waited an hour and got to about 40% until I closed my eyes a lil and didn't wake up till now which is like 4 hours later
These creatures are normally friendly as long as you stay away from their dams. However, their dams do contain many valuable items such as cementing paste and rare flowers or mushrooms.
Keep an eye out for beaver dams, when you access them the beavers will come and find you! I would recommend making a small taming tower or boat to tame which is simply 3 pillars high and a ceiling on top plus a means of getting ontop
Cuts woods weight to 10 and collects a lot of wood. If you want to get a lot of wood take an argy than pick up your beaver to redwood and the redwood trees get you more wood than regular trees
Use a giga a spino a allo or Rex and you will be fine.
So I was walking in with my tribe. Normal stuff ya know? Then we saw a level 5 castorides so we just punched it. Our 3 level 50 raptors (Thief, Slasher, and Snapper) started attacking. We were level 75 with metal armor and swords so we helped the raptors. The raptors did a LOT of damage and we also helped. Slasher got down REALLY low on health, but other than that we all were fine and killed it in 5 seconds.
Easy way of emptying their dams, bolas, then knock it out....empty and destroy dams, retreat.......repeat next time you go back, EASY !!
if you have Narco, you do not need narcoberries to tame them
