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

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!

Very good for gathering wood, and can carry a lot

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

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

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

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!

For wood, put on raft with large flat deck. You and your buddy drive through the swamp, swinging away. Raft has no weight restrictions. ENDLESS wood, thatch and mushrooms. Careful not to push off, go slow. It adds up fast, regularly took home 10,000+lbs of materials.

They are very strong and very good at collecting wood.

Absolutely fantastic at harvesting cactus sap on Scorched Earth.

The weight reduction on wood makes this Dino the best at gathering wood. Getting one of these early on the game might be a hard task but if done so this Dino will make your time in ark a lot easier. Yes they’re slow creatures but are extremely worth it lol

The best farmer of wood, it has the best weight in comparison with Beaver and Therizino and has the best reduction of weight in wood with 1/4 of the total weight

In primitive plus Mammoths drop fresh fat. Fresh fat doesn't need to be cooked to be consumed and stacks upto 500.

Breed for the boss fights so you can knock back minions

Honestly better for wood runs than a beaver in my mind. Pair it with a quetz and load up.

Be warned of the creatures low stamina. You’ll find it hard to compete in drawn out battles if you don’t pump stamina.

Need 4 seater saddle now mammoth becomes explorer frnd.:)

It's not listed in the "More" section but these guys fit through a 3x3 area.
