These creatures are capable of attacking an Argent that is holding them, beware.
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.
I have encountered these mostly in the swamp but also near some rivers. They are FAST. They will pull you off of your mount. They also drag you out into the water so if you plan on going out into the swamp, bOlas are your friend.
Dont try to tame this thing while flying it will grab you out of your Dino. Try to have another tribe mate protect you from the other dinos in the swamp while you tame the kapro
Get ur friend on a argy 2 pick up a kapro then he hovers over the ground then u trank it but make shure your behind the argy or u wont trank the kapro
Very low health creature, be sure to use darts. KO'd a 150 and only had 1000 health. Otherwise very funny tame to have, can be picked up with an argi, swoop at your own risk.
Easy tame just bola or dodge its leap attack. Low hp so farely easy to kill.
Not the best on health. Upgrades are necessary.
Don't go to the swamp!!! These are the worst things ever! Think you'll quickly mkae it through the swamp? Think again
Use a bola on these, makes the knockout fairly easy. I stood on top of my quetz, bola, then tranq arrows.

The best way to tame a Kapro without a cage!!!!
I get it to follow me to ground(out of the water), and then face the kapro and run to the side to dodge its jump. Always keep looking at it!! Try to stay close to it and run…

I get it to follow me to ground(out of the water), and then face the kapro and run to the side to dodge its jump. Always keep looking at it!! Try to stay close to it and run circles around it ( important to stay behind it ), then shoot it with tranque arrows.
I tamed a Level 100 kapro on first try!!!
You can use a bola on this even after getting caught in it's mouth! Very effective against these beasts!
If playing on scorched and you have a wyvern, the best way to k.o is to land on top of it and stand on the neck/head of the wyvern and tranq it.
Once tamed, you can drag fish out of the water. Use this for an easy meal or to lure a carnivore out. Can also make taming Icthys a breeze
GET you and one tribe member on a raft and have tranq arrows or darts and flak armor. Lead it away from the swamp in east zone and onto a shore and tranq it there if it latches onto you then use a club to try to ko it.
TooK me 5 Shots for a 35
Found it easy to throw a bola at them and easily shoot with tranqs to knock it out.
BEWARE it will knock you off a small tame approaching this with caution is recommended
Just tamed a low level only took a couple frank arrows it's best to trap it in eaither some Dino gates or a small bear trap
Really easy to knock out use bolas and make surebu have a friend with u, once knocked out just give it prime and wait!! Very fun mount, like argie just on ground, picks up raptors and stuff.
Bring a friend, even if you bola it, if it's got you in its jaw, you're dead. Kill something near by and use it as a distraction to bola it before it leaps for you. Darts drop it fast. I would advice, if you don't have them, get them!
