If you (like me) use the poo oil from these to make the jerky you (like me) eat, you (like me) may be slightly above average.
Dung Beetle
What ARK players use the Dung Beetle for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Build a cage and put it in the cage in wonder. Then fill with sh** and live happily ever after.
TIPP: (EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW)
1) They spawn inside the LOWER SOUTH CAVE and you can easily tame them up PASSIB using ROTTEN FLESH
2) If you put POOP inside their Inventory and let them WALK they will produce FRETILIZER and OIL after a period of time

2) If you put POOP inside their Inventory and let them WALK they will produce FRETILIZER and OIL after a period of time
3) I would recommend to JUST LVL UP THEIR WEIGHT so they can CARRY MORE POOP and PRODUCE more FERTILIZER and OIL
4) Build a small enclosure (or a box) for them to walk around inside it and also place a feeding trough filled with rotten flesh if you want
5) THEY CAN CLIMB OVER FENCES

Levels don't really matter with these, but aim for higher levels because you'll need all the weight you can get on these things to work even better.
Awesome for eating your feces if you want a buddy that does that? For some reason...
If u cryo a dino and throw it out they will produce feces everytime
Simply tame with poop (passive). Then only upgrade weight and fill it’s inventory with poop and you got a fertilizer and oil maker.
Place in a cage (you can access their inventory from a crouched position without opening the cage) in your greenhouse with a phiomia nearby and you’ll never worry about fertilizer again.
On aberration they can be found at blue zone, go near poison red shroom and enjoy yourself being poop maker.
These things are AWESOME at getting fertilizer for farms. They got me four bags from one beetle before my decomposing bin could even get 1. Absolutely essential tame for farmers.
Get a couple of these. Place them in a 4x4 box 30 pillars high and they DO NOT move while on wander. I have 25 of them and I produce oil for an alliance
Keep in mind: despite being tamed by feeding them dung, they don't eat it once tamed. They'll eat (rotten) meat.
You can use large creatures for poop just sprint and attack something while riding them and they will poop fast cuz they consume their food, but phiomia are much effective i think cuz of the comments here.
I don't really use them so i won't waste a tame slot.
Be sure the beetle is on wander or else it will make no fertilizer. If it is encumbered, in my experience, it did not make any fertilizer .
Has one use
Living compost bin
Always enable wandering and keep in a cage
Wanna upgrade other stats? Listen well! Grab a tamed beetle fill your own inventory with all the poop that phiomia produces lock you and your beetle in a cage. Set his ass to Aggressive and unclaim it. Let it murder you and it'll have all the poop from your inventory.…

Set his ass to Aggressive and unclaim it. Let it murder you and it'll have all the poop from your inventory. Reclaim it and wallah. Now you can increase its health
On Aberration, collect many as possible and start a oil farm. Great way for early game oil collecting otherwise hunt Triobites.
Feed it small feces! The dung beetle will produce fertilizer no matter the size of the feces you put inside his inventory! Using small feces weighs about .3LBs meaning you can stock his inventory extremely well and get tons of fert back.
It eats poop it’s a passive mob and when wanders it turns poop into fertilizer and oil
