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.
They are very powerful and underrated mine 2 SHOT a carno people need to stop saying they are weak
they have leap and a grab.
To do the leap swipe up and it will leap(can also grab Dinos)
to do the grab swipe down and it will grab.
It’s also good at swimming.
And does around 40 damage when tamed.(normal attack)
They are hated for grabbing players but they are amazing…

They are by far the most underrated creature they are extremely useful when tamed because they are great for caving and they can drain stamina of any wild creature allowing you to easily kill it.
First, wait for it to carry you in its mouth then, start beating it with a club or shoot it with tranq arrows, make sure to give it some bio toxin or narco berrys
The kaprosuchus is a pretty versatile tame that can be used most effectively as a terrestrial killing machine but also works for fishing (not recommended, mainly because of piranhas and baryonyx) and caving. For the kapro to be a good tame however, you’ll need to tame one…
The kaprosuchus is a pretty versatile tame that can be used most effectively as a terrestrial killing machine but also works for fishing (not recommended, mainly because of piranhas and baryonyx) and caving. For the kapro to be a good tame however, you’ll need to tame one that is a relatively high level since kapros at level up to 90 usually only have hp ranging from 200 to 600 in the wild.
But how do you actually use it to fight things effectively?
Well the leap attack and the idle grab can pick up pretty much anything the size of a raptor or smaller but the leap can also be utilized for a combo of sorts or getting out of sticky situations. The combo I’m talking about is really just using the leap on something too big to be picked up, following up with an m1 attack. When fighting something larger than the kapro you need to spam the leap in between regular attacks to do extra damage as much as you possibly can and it’ll make you pretty much impossible to kill for a lot of creatures (I’ve killed therizinos with this method on a lvl 230 kapro)
The leap can also be used for a more cautious approach to combat but leaping towards something, running away and leaping back in, run away, leap attack, run away and I think you get the point now lol. You can also do the opposite and run towards things, do some m1’s, leap away and repeat. Both these methods will slow down the rate that you kill things but it’ll also make you take less damage if you do it right so it’s worth it mainly if there’s a lot of threats in the area.
My favorite use of the leap though is the possibility to just utterly jumpscare small creatures, grabbing them in your mouth in the process and eat them alive with no resistance. Works with players too but be careful because players might be able to defend themselves, so be careful who you pick up.
The kapro is useful for a lot of caves because of the grabbing and leaping letting you escape danger and PICK UP any araneo and a bunch of other cave creatures and kill them pretty easily.
That’s all from me! I hope this made you
These things are great tames! They are really fun to ride and when you imprint them 100% they are really fast! Just one more thing though, level up it’s weight allot…
Really good tame for mobility early on, and can transport a small to medium size creature in its mouth, including players. For PvP, it can be good for dismounting players and capturing enemy players. The only disadvantage is that it has really low hp even at high levels.
When you see it… RUN. Because they can glitch you out of the game on mobile.
Bro I just got picked up by one and I just punched and keep in mind I just spawned in and I knocked it out
Don’t let them die because their good for travelling by jumping
If you fight with it it will jump on you if you tame it it will sleep on you
All I have to say is… don’t fly over the swamp with your fav high lvl argy😩😩😩😭😭😭
Never bola this thing... I lost Blue (my frog). I miss you pal😭😭😭😭
have a base in the swamp tame 5 of these put them on wandering and agressive and your gold on food
They can’t get you on a stego so if you have a stego you are safe from these kidnappers.
To find these new dinosaurs on scorched earth, go to water locations to find them.
THEY CAN GET YOU OFF YOUR MOUNT SO RUNNNNN
