decided to fly low in a swamp with my argie, a kapro jumped and kidnapped me off my argie. I live to tell my story, they do not have candy, don’t trust them.
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.
Most legitimate taming method for Kapros lvl 50 or lower(I did this at level 8, barely leveled health, and haven’t tested on high levels so it might work on them as well)
Step 1: find yourself a nice spot in the swamp to sit down near the water with your club and…
Most legitimate taming method for Kapros lvl 50 or lower(I did this at level 8, barely leveled health, and haven’t tested on high levels so it might work on them as well)
Step 1: find yourself a nice spot in the swamp to sit down near the water with your club and relax
Step 2: Get jumped by Kapro
Step 3: start clubbing/punching Kapro, it won’t be able to escape as you are in its mouth
Step 4: feed it literally any meat, I haven’t had problems with kapros actually waking up
Easy tame, you’re welcome
DO NOT LAND FOR STAMINA IN THE SWAMP!!!! i lost my best Pteranodon and all my gear to a lvl 100 these guys arent ment to be taken likely and make Sarcos look like dodos
Ever seen a frail old lady in the supermarket get randomly dump-tackled while she was browsing the clementines?
Well guess what, if you go to the swamp, you're going to be the old lady.
When in swamps, watch yourself. These things will leap at you from nowhere, and they WILL take you off your mount if they touch you
On mobile they ARE affected by bolas
You can shoot with a pistol, rifle, etc on these things! They are also pretty useful for harvesting hide and raw meat. Pls like so the noobs can see. Ty!
I found a 150 lvl near my base and to trap it i used stone gateway bola don't work or smashing it with club won't work so I used 5 stone gateways and 5 doors for them then I opened 2 doors and waited for him to grab me while I was in that circle trap and when he…

3. Put your choice of narcotics or narcoberries in its inventory .well I use bio toxin from jellyfish so easy to get and very effective .
4. Use meat or prime meat prime works the best
5 123 you’ve tamed a Karpo
If this gets 20 l!kes I’ll do how to take carno
Signed kai the Dino guy
If you run across one and it happens to leap at you, bite you, and start to carry you away throw a bola at it and it will let you go.
Pickup with argentavis drop into your taming box as usual. Will fit easily into 2x3. Walls should be at least 3 high.
Here’s how I did it.
Step 1. Find low lvl Kapro
Step 2. Run at Kapro
Step 3. Punch Kapro til it faints
Step 4. Shove boa meat down it’s throat
This method worked twice for me, with a lvl 1 and a lvl 3. If you’re going for a high lvl, a crap load a health will see…

These tames are good to defend your base leave several on the setting to attack anyone attacking your base because they can jump and dismount attacker I left some on the roof and they picked attackers off there flying tames and my turrets did the rest
uncariable by argy huh yeah argy or quetz and wyvern can carry it
This guy is my favourite so far, right from when I first meet him, I was a noob and wandered close to a swamp well he came flying at me missed and disappeared behind me, I'm like what the neck was that, climbed a big arse rock asap and looked around, bugger came bounding…
This guy is my favourite so far, right from when I first meet him, I was a noob and wandered close to a swamp well he came flying at me missed and disappeared behind me, I'm like what the neck was that, climbed a big arse rock asap and looked around, bugger came bounding back towards me and leapt straight up that rock like it was a mole hill.
Tamed the bugger and took him hunting, came across my first raptor and shat myself thinking oh rap I am screwed, nope Kappa flys over my head, collects the raptor and pile drives it into the ground several meters away, hilarious. Always fun times with Kappa around.
Mobile tamer:
Since it can pick things up, and has mounted combat. You can pick up small dinos, move them around and tranq them while in the kapro's mouth.
This guy was the single motivator as to why humans decided to make shotguns.
On ark mobile they are affected by bolas
I shit myself a little the first time one jumped at me, not gonna lie
If you ever find a guy who asks if you wanna get in a van he’s just a kapro in disguise
