Maewings are omnivores but prefer to eat meat out of their inventory so if you're careing for a baby carnivore beware. I lost 3 out of 4 dionicus babys because the maewing ate all the food.
Maewing
The Maewing is an "interstellar wet nurse" in ARK: Genesis Part 2. It resembles a platypus mixed with a flying squirrel and has some sort of ability to glide. The Maewing is described as an "interstellar wet nurse" and is able to lure offspring of other creatures using its irresistible teats. Nice! 😏
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Maewing in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Even though it does not say Maewings spawn on Fjordour they do I saw one at 23;83 by the structures
Eat a rare flower and lead it to a trap. Easy tame, mutton is everywhere
Doesnt eveeyone wish you could swoop from the sky and pounce on dinos like a thylo. Just minding your own buisnes then BAM a flying platipus just belly flopped you.
They cannot drown so if you k/o in water, don't panic. Advice- use a bird with decent hp in Lost Island as there are many sarcos & raptors around. Best found scattered in 50x60, 60x70 square on map.

If you don’t want to slide when landing, press the jump button right before you hit the ground and you will just stop.
On Fjordur, maewings will spawn much more in the colder, northern area of the redwoods.
Even though the Maewing is an omnivore (eats meat or berries), you MUST have the right food type for babies while the Maewing is nursing babies.
For example, if you have the Maewing loaded down with berries, but it's nursing Rexes...the Rexes will starve without meat in…

It's omnivore. We've been taming them with mutton all day. So both seem to work. And if you put both in inventory it'll eat meat first.
These guys are found in the redwoods but I've found they're much easier to spot in asgard (North was where I found a bunch) also make sure to net gun them otherwise they're almost impossible to tranq because they glide when shot
These are found on fjordur. My husband and I found one in the redwoods
According to the patch notes these things are big!
By far the best flying tame.
1. Can swim and dive, can breathe underwater
2. Can glide ultra long distance and not us Stamina
3. Can jump out of immediate danger
4. Quite a quick runner for a flyer
5. Good carry weight.
This thing is going to be able to automatically feed your baby’s. Pretty cool!
Since it's part platypus, imo it should have a venomous attack, can even see the spines on their back feet. Other than that, great easy tame that takes basic(dodo egg) kibble. Wet nurse, fast travel, decent damage and gatherer of meat and berries.
Fun fact: The maewing has weight reduction on the most items out of any other creatures. These items are food for the babies to eat so you don’t have to worry about your maewing not being able to move because the food for the babies are inside. This actually surprised me, I…

This actually surprised me, I always thought the ravager had the most weight reductions
Doddex needs to add what the baby's like to eat in breeding
these things have bounteous teats be careful
How to tame on fjorder! (Bc that’s the map I’m on♥️)

1. There located in the redwoods, North East, Top right corner of the map
2. Go to 21.18 83.3 and you should see a lake and then you should see them/one now it gets tricky..
3. If it’s out of the water you are in luck!! If it’s in the water that’s gonna be harder, if it’s in the water shoot it so it comes out but you will have to chase after it because they won’t come and attack you once you find it net-projectile it and knock it out (preferable weapon: Shotgun). If it’s on land just projectile it and knock it out.
4. Feed it the kibble/Berry/Meat(It’s a omnivore) and watch it’s torpor just incase it doesn’t go down that fast but still.
5. Watch out for predators like: Terror bird, Thylacoleo, Direbear, Troodon all of the dangerous stuff.
6. cryopod the Milker and take it back to base, place it down, name it(if you have a name) and yea! You got a maewing :)

How to use(Nursing)
Items needed: Meat(if carnivore or omnivore)Berrys(If herbivore or omnivore) etc(if diff)inside of the maewings inventory. Proceed to put your baby to the maewing, go into the maewings wheel and press nursing mode and milk will uhh.. *silence* squirt out of its.. tittys yea uhm.. Ignore that😃. Your baby’s will have a trough above there head, that means the maewing is nursing them, it will make them go up so you don’t have to do it by putting food in the baby/trough. But you still have to take part and put food in the maewing. Cryopod your baby’s and turn off nursing for the maewing when logging off unless you have a tribe member who will watch over the baby’s a little and get meat etc for the baby’s to put in the maewing.
it’s a living, breathing atv. it can fly/glide, swim really well, and obviously be on land
