These guys might honestly be the best beginner pet. They are a little hard to tame but it is so worth it. To begin, these are great defenders! I live in south zone so this keeps me safe from argys, sabertooths, dilos. They also are great stone collectors, they don’t even need a saddle to collect stone. Let it go on wander and it will collect stone for you and come back right before it gets encumbered.
Here is a tip for those of us using large rocks for cover, trying to hide out in the forests while playing solo: If you park this little guy by a rock, he will destroy the rock all by himself. If you carry him with an argie and skim over a rock, he will destroy that rock all by himself and you lose your cover (good luck getting refertilizer to re-grow your rocks). The good news is that you can harvest stone with this little guy by simply skimming over rocks, avoiding the chance of getting eaten by a hidden saber tooth or a raptor!
