I saw one of those in the ice biome my eyes saw it getting killed by my eqis
If u are a admin on ark mobile get a balm preferably 10x or 15x and titanoboa kibble and feed it with out shrouding u
All I gotta say is early game get yourself some berry’s and tame one they are good for berry meat hide and they can win in a fight overall just a good tame!
A random tip for mobile players:
Due to a nerf in mobile where flyers get a speed debuff from taking damage (which can get painfully annoying especially in single player), I recommend using a quetzal to carry the gigantopithecus to a safe spot (e.g near an area in your base that you feel is safe for your potential ape tame and definitely not anywhere near your tames)
Just use 2 large billboards then boom but it might take a bit of time to get it trapped
If you look under the amount of food it needs, it shows the amount of time for each interval, meaning you can set a clock and know exactly when :)
Get behind it with a flyer close by for emergencies, and continuously shove berries up its butt whenever it crouches down, STAY BEHIND IT THOUGH OR YOU WILL DIE A PAINFUL DEATH BY BIGFOOT
On mobile anyway you can ride an Argi and follow him without needing camo or needing to crouch
