Make a separate building for the beetle. It wanders around, and can be quite annoying, as it's usually in the doorway. Put it near your greenhouse, or somewhere easily accessible to encourage your tribe to keep it loaded with poo.

If you hit them they won’t start running away. They will run at you and take out there anger by smacking you with its horn. And ima just say it they hit you.... it’s gonna hurt.

These are passive tames meaning you tame them while awake. They are very easy to tame. You can just feed it poop or you can pick it up with a argentavis and put in a box.

GEN 2 location

Area around 82 lat and 25 long

Carryable by Kaprosuchus as of May 2020. (Not sure if they were before; Dododex says they are not)

Just feed it poop. It’s not that hard

You can find them in the desmodus cave on fjourdor

Get yourself a full ghille suit, load up with large feces and go hunting with your Argy. Tame two at a time, pickup one and mount up then grab the second in Argy talons. Safe flight home

This may not work for everyone, but it works for me. I took a saber down in the Central Cave (maxed at lvl 190 so not a good one at all), I ran past all the creatures that were hostile until I came across a dung beetle, once I found one, I killed any creatures that followed me/ are with the beetle, you don't need an amazing tame to kill these creatures, once isolated from all dangers, feed large animal feces until fully tamed, what I did was collect feces from my T-Rex'S (I only have 4 and it took about 5 minutes to get 10 large feces) hope this helps!

Picked up the dung beetle with my Arg and flew to a safe bldg and dropped the beetle into the bldg. Walked behind it to feed it as it requested. Took 3 med fees or 2 LG feeses for lol 260 beetle

I always look for these in upper south cave. I always find them long before I run in to any aggressive creatures in the cave. Cannot say the same about the lower south cave.

How to Tame a dung Beetle:

-go to the lower south cave and take a good Tame for protecting yourself and Try to find One.

- After you find it, take enough poop to Tame it and Feed it passively.

And you got yourself a Beetle :0

Utility: the Beetle is a better version of the composting Bin, just put any type of Poop (i prefer large Poop) and send it wandering then it will create fertilizer and oil anytime soon

Thanks for Reading.

On Crystal Isles these guys spawn next to the big termite nests in the central-southern region of the map. This is by far the easiest way to get them, as you don’t have to deal with any other cave creatures.

Accurate tip for taming these cuties :

1. Craft Bug repellent

2. Use a baryonyx to enter Lower south cave

3. If you want you can also sneak by them. Use baryonyx to kill scorpions cuz Bug repellent doesn't work on them.

4. Feed the dung beetle medium animal feces cuz it takes only 50 seconds

5. Carry it outside.

You got a dung beetle! -spoopy_190YT

On mobile you can kill one take its implant and revive it to tame safely

(Do not harvest body until after grabbing implant)

For mobile and PC both ARK

Just tame a dire wolf or saber tooth

Head to lower south cave (hunter cave ) or swamp cave (immune cave )

Kill all the creatures (except dung beetle[s])

Feed it spoiled meat ( but animal faces is more preferred) (don’t use massive animal feces)

Once tamed carry it and ride your dino

Safely reach your base

If helpful click upside arrow

Do they Attack or not? Someone plz answer

They can't eat massive animal feces for some reason

How to tame:

Go to South Cave and find it

Make sure a strong tame is with you and start feeding it some feces or spoiled meat

When tamed quickly pick him up and leave the cave.

So to tame one go to a lower south cave get spoiled meat and passive feed them and kill everything except dung beetles in the area

How to use them they are used to make fertilizer and oil put poop in inventory and build a box for it get it in the box put it on wonder and boom fertilizer and oil they sometimes prouduce oil
