As of early 2017, the mammoth now can carry wood at 12.5 weight per stack, which is now better than a beaver. Like so others may see

A mammoth can FLY. Quetzal + Mammoth can gather thousands of wood in minutes. Attack while a tribe/alliance mate flys you though an area with trees

If you are on your own try shooting it with a trank arrow and let it follow you to a safe spot I.e your base so you can tame it safely and you are closer to all your stuff too.

New Patch brings a buff to our favourite furry friend. Now Mammoth have a 75% weight reduction of all wood in it's inventory.

Mammoth needs a platform saddle!

They can be found around the mountains in the winter biome if you are looking for them to kill or tame

Very good for gathering wood, and can carry a lot

Go into the winter biome and they can mainly be found around the mountains

The mammoth is now usable with its 75% weight reduction so now they are a very good competitor to the giant beaver!!

Can be found in the snow biome, be careful for other dino's though, snow biome is a dangerous place.

On the raft build a 3x3 foundation with 3 walls high and a ramp going up into the raft. Go to the winter area youll find Mammoths there. Get it into the raft. Once in the raft shoot it with tranq arrows. Starve it and then feed. Kibble is 80times its food.

Make excellent battle dinos. Very large AOE attack and can withstand alot of damage.

So we have Manny and Diego now we need Sid.

The knock back allows it to kill Alpha Raptors and Carnos.

The numbers are wrong on how much kibble it will take. Bring extra

They are slow and have a small agro radius slowing for a quick get away(assuming that you haven't lost all your stamina

Build a raft with about 9 or so foundations/ ceiling and put Walls on the perimeter and ramps in the front and put large storage boxes along the walls and go to the swamp with a buddy and just sit on the mammoth on the front of the raft and swing away. Best wood/thatch/shroom farm ever

As to a posed of the Giant Beaver, this creature has a bonus where wood is x0.25 it's normal weight, combined with its large carry weight it's the best option for gathering wood. Ps: Giant beaver ' s mod. is x0.5!

If u find them on the border of the snow on the west carefull as loads of rexes and raptors and other fatal mobs spawn there

They are very strong and very good at collecting wood.
