All you need to do is grab some meat and darts and then..... SCREW IT SAVE YOURSELF RUN!!!!!!!!
Kaprosuchus
The Kaprosuchus is a crocodile-like reptile commonly found around swamps. Though it is a smaller, weaker version of the Sarco, some survivors perfer it for its speed — both on land and in water.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Kaprosuchus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Named one forklift and move smaller Dino's around the base with his grip ability.
Carry a whip and whip it when it grabs you, it will let go
Oh my god I remember mid game ark... I was on my pt going around the swamp because I was low on stam... and lag happened and I flew straight into the water so it dismount me then 2 kapros jumped at me and I died.... I couldn't find my stuff but I got my pt back....
But it…

But it did cost me a dino
Not much to say about them that hasn't been said yet...except that u shouldn't try to punch them out if they grab you. Use a club at the very least, Cuz a when a lv145 kapro comes flying out of nowhere with its buddies, fists ain't gonna do the job.
Just found out these things drop eggs but you apparently can't make kibble with it??
Definitely use the moths in scorched to slow them down then shoot them
The devil! You are not safe anywhere near one of these. Fly above the trees or else it will consume your soul!
Do not bring this guy into the first cave I brought two in and it did not work on even had a saddle I was riding him they both died
I used to think Karpros like eating fish more than normal meat. So whenever you want to tame one, just get normal meat(raw) which is also easier too! They look like baby sarcos🐊
The saddle for this thing should be at wayyy lower level, they are OK... They can grab certain Dino's for easy taming but at level 39 you will not be looking for these guys I assure you that.
Avoid going near these things on a mount otherwise they will leap forward and grab you of your mount but once tamed this can be really useful

I feel like they need to give the Kapro a lil TLC since they amped the Sarco, they picking on the lil bro!
For mobile players, you CAN BOLA THIS THINGS!!! I just did it out of fear for my life and it stopped him! It works!!! Dododex has it wrong!
Get a underwater base and breed kapros=Defence for base
Breed a army with a female or male lvled weight and the other gender health or melee=Good kapro army
Probably one of the most surprising attackers in the game, a Kapro has to fly at your face and Inject it’s stamina depleting poison(I am not completely sure if this is a mobile thing), however, if you have a strong melee weapon on you, you can quickly escape via killing it…

Tame a large dinosaur (I used a yuty, I'm not sure if kapros can knock you off a large mount so be weary of this, but a kapro has yet to knock me off of my yuty and I've tamed 3 of them so far) and tame a dilophosaur to use as bait. Make sure both are set to passive.…

Make sure both are set to passive. Once you see a kapro and you're in aggro range, hop off your yuty for a sec then hop back on. The kapro should be aggroed onto you but will attack your mount trying to get to you. Move around a bit and the kapro will eventually change targets to the dilo. Once it's got the dilo in it's jaws, you can get off your yuty and shoot it with tranq darts and bam, you got yourself a new dino
This may be my personal favorite transport Dino for early ish game. It’s able to move through the swamp freely and makes for decent defense against the random attackers like raptors and dilos.
If you're on a flyer, please recharge your stamina before going to the swamp and fly high or these b****rds will grab you of your mount, giving a slow, painful death.
