You can't pick it up like a Dodo so i'd recommend leveling up his movement speed as well. :)

This is a passive tame. Like all passive tames, you must equip the item it requests in your hot bar and tap it to feed the item to the dinosaur. Once tamed, this dinosaur provides a 35% experience boost to your dinosaurs that are near it every 5 minutes when you use the social action to pet it. This is very beneficial and is suggested.
这是一个被动的驯服。 像所有被动驯服一样，您必须在热栏中装备它要求的物品，然后点击它以将物品喂入恐龙中。 一旦被驯服，当您使用社交动作抚摸它时，该恐龙每5分钟为附近的恐龙提供35％的经验提升。 这是非常有益的，建议使用。

Esta es una domesticación pasiva. Al igual que todos los domesticadores pasivos, debe equipar el elemento que solicita en su barra caliente y tocarlo para alimentar el dinosaurio. Una vez domesticado, este dinosaurio proporciona un aumento de la experiencia del 35% a los dinosaurios que están cerca de él cada 5 minutos cuando usas la acción social para acariciarlo. Esto es muy beneficioso y se sugiere.

One of the funniest little dinos in the game.
Act like a dog
Walks and run like a dog
Gives XP boost

And he does a backflip! :D

I named mine do master cuz if pet him he be like

*back flips* xp master: yea! WOHOOOO! U get xp, and u get xp!

Find a lot of rare flowers in beaver dams and use them to tame lystrosaurus, then use their eggs to get diplodocus. Use diplodocus eggs to get allosaurus. These dinos are a great way to move up fast on PvP servers by getting a lot of allosaurus

Taming one can be a good way to level up. Once tamed they can be pet to obtain a free buff to epericence for you and your dinos in range. Last about five minutes.

If your bearly starting consider taming a hole pack of these and your dinos well be in great condition.the more you have the Xp and levels you get for your tames.

Basically the ark version of a puppy. Super easy to tame and can launch you through the early levels with its Xp boost. All around pretty good Dino’s. Level health and weight for portable storage and Xp

Lystrosaurus, this little reptile could have it all in the fierce war between the dodo and kairuku. They are like little puppy dogs, which means you pet them and they do some cool trick, like a backflip. They are great to have around bases, as they provide an xp buff so other dinos lvl quicker. Lystro army is also funny, I mean look at their little legs they're so adorable yes you are little lystro! Oops, gotta keep it professional here. Yeah they're great

Good starting Dino- will give XP to your tribe/other dinosaurs

Pro at back flips!!!

Rumor to increase chance of twins if you pet before hatch?

I just started out on a new single player world and one of these was the first Dino I tamed, and then also the second, third, fourth and fifth. They follow me everywhere (albeit they are slow) and XP buff each other so they level really fast. I put each level into carry weight and boom- five level 70 pack horses in my first hour on a new ark. Each one can carry many stacks of rocks and wood. The only problem is: they eat all my berries.

If you are looking to make kibble from their eggs, than get 10 females and two males and stay at you base always petting them because the produce eggs even slower than scorpions.

Wonder if it was a shoulder mount . A carrybag of xp at ur shoulder.

Use these little puppers to keep you company while you rule the ARK. They may also make your dumb Dinos smart like this little pupper.

All though it doesnt say this in this apps kibble chart, lystros are the starting point for tamminging high lvl griffins with allo eggs! Lystro->diplo->allo->griffin!

Use them to get 100% taming efficiency while taming Bloodstalkers! They are fast to tame and level fully into hp until hp is over 1200. It will take around 5-6 to get a wild bloodstalker to 100%. :)

To activate his XP buff in ark mobile swipe from left to right while targeting it, press on heart icon for petting. Be careful when taming with Rare flower he he he!

Always have it by your tames it give xp over time
