Tips & Strategies

What are tips for kairuku? Tips and strategies for kairuku in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
For Taking. Use tranquilizing darts. I have an ascendant crossbow and kept killing them by accident. As it seems it takes a lot of tranq arrows take one down. But when using tranq darts it took couple shots but did trick.
The best spot to tame one is on the little island in the corner of the north biodome. Which pretty much is penguin island. Nothing really pops up there to bother you unless you count the ocean. Also dododex does say it has a high tampour drop, but if you have some raw prime meat on you it isn't going to be a problem. Tamed a lv110 it's only 5 pieces of raw prime.
In mobile if your looking for these go to the snow then go to the snow island. Also these things drop organic polymer.
To the person who said that their sister and him found a procoptodon and a griffin in the arctic- i found A GLIDING LEEDSICHTHYS on the cliff at South haven
Walking lunch meat that give organic polymer
Dont Listen to All these people dont use wooden Club use a chainsaw to get the Max amout of Polymer
After creating a farm use a moschops with levelled up poly gathering to harvest the ones you kill. Easy polymer
Tranq darts do not work. Killed 20 of them with body shots and another 20 with headshots.
Baby penguins drop prime meat so bring any but taming food
it may be brutal but if you're trying to get organic polymer and you kill one of these in one hit, the other kairukus won't panic and run away. they only run away if you hurt one and it doesn't die. same goes for dodos
There things will provide warmth in the snow,so tame them if you spawn there
easy to tame just knock it out then feed it raw fish or raw meat ether one get about 5-7 females and 1-2 males and bang you have a mass horde of Kairuku / penguins
The wiki says that you cannot tame them unless they are adults. Well I call B.S. because I tamed a baby Kairuku/Penguin by just shooting it with Tranquilizer arrows until it fell asleep and offered it meat. Don’t trust what the people on the wiki say unless it’s from a trusted source.
