Jerboa

While the Jerboa has little practical use, some survivors enjoy its companionship as a cuddly, shoulder-mounted pet. This mini kangaroo-like creature is able to sense upcoming weather changes and its behavior will indicate when a tribe might need to prepare. The Jerboa is easy to tame, however, low torpor means survivors need to pay close attention to it while taming.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Jerboa in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

If you want to tame one of these cuties, this is what you will need:

1. Your fists! (It shouldn’t take that long to knock them out they have very low torpor)

2. Berries ( Mejoberries are most effective )

Now taming-

1. Literally just punch the fur out of it until it…

Warns you what storm is coming, and when. If it makes a chirping kinda noise to the sky, it's a sandstorm. If it tries to bury it's head in the ground and shakes it's head, it's a superheat. If it shakes it's tail and growls, lightning storm.

Easiest most humane way to tame is to use the boomerang one shot knocks it out and feed it berries

If you want to kill it in the most humane way first get are rpg and ammo plus fireworks then play star spangled banner and boom boom then hold a funeral this is the ONLY way.

These are only found in the dungeon in mobile and cannot be tamed inside the dungeon, but can still be tamed. Kill the jerboa and take its implant and once you exit the dungeon take it to a revival platform, resurrect it and tame it!

Easy meat source, good for farming.

Make sure to make a pen and have a velociraptor on aggro in another.

Put 2 male jerboa and 2 female jerboa, breed them.

Once you have 20 jerboa throw half into the raptor pen.

Rinse and repeat

Personally I like to wait until…

They DO spawn on mobile. Here’s how to get one:

Go to a dungeon, find a jerboa and kill it.

Revive it at an obelisk

Knock it out

Feed it berries/seeds

Enjoy your tame!

It can wear a hat, yup that's how cool it is. It is also very grammar for a first tame.

Detects weather events. Singing means lighting storm is coming.

Do not use arrows or tranq darts, 9/10 you will instantly kill the poor creatures, club them or punch them!

As of July 27th 2022, on xbox official, The weather detection and weight reduction work perfectly. Plus they're the easiest tame next to DoDo but so much more useful than an egg dispenser lol
