What ARK players use the Dodo for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Put a tamed dodo in a hiding spot and fill it with all your items and now you have a tiny storage box. Trust me it works no one found it when my tribe got raided and all my good stuff was safe.

Every critter has a use in a niche strategy. Dodo hordes wreck single target enemies like Raptors or Carnos. Rather skittish in the wild though, maybe they haven't figured out they're surprisingly dangerous?

Tame about 6 of these dodos for a rather efficient dodo egg farm. Of course, tame five females, and one male. Dodo Eggs can be made into dodo kibble! Now you can easily tame that high level pteradon you've wanted for the past 137 hours!

Tame a pack of them and level speed,melee, and hp. Then have them follow a dino on aggressive around your base.

Tame one, hopefully high level, name it bait, and jack it's health up a lot. Good for survival.

Give your enemies a dodo bird, if their smart, they should know it's an act of WAR. Put a C4 under it to where it is hidden, and when it's near people, blow it up.

They are a good source of food early in a playthrough. Build a small thatch shack, put one male and as many females as you want and you have a pretty decent supply of raw meat, hide, and exp (From leveling them up and hatching) considering how early you can do it.

Use a pteradon to put a dodo on a titanoasuar and whistle attack target, in about 2 days attack the Titan with the ptero or carry something else that is on aggressive next to the Titan and then kill it for massive xp

These guys actually do have some use. If you just scatter them around you're base and have them on neutral, if something does get in your base it'll aggro on the dodos and you'll get a message saying you're dodo died, alerting you of the intruding creature.…

Us for eggs to make kibble for Pteranodon and ichthy

Having a dodo with you on an adventure is a good way to get emergency food. All you need now is a daedon and you have eggs and bacon.

THESE THINGS POOP SO MUCH U CAN LIVE OFF THEIR EGGS(which they poop out)

-2 points9 years oldReport

Dodos poop more than any other animals on ark which can prove to be quite useful. Pick it up with a bird and fly over an enemy or douchbag's base and let the s**t storm begin!

This terrible beast is great to get eggs so you can tame a nice level pteranodon early game

I suggest bringing a dodo up the mountain with your ankylo as they can hold A ton of weight

If high level can be one of the strongest dinos in game great early tame

Place these next to the outer walls of your base. If explosives are used to destroy the wall, the Dodo will die. Then you can look in your tribe manager and see who broke into your base since one of your tames was killed. Also useful for their eggs to make pteradon kibble.

Breeding dodo is a good idea because babies give prime meat
