At first these guys are passive and tame and can be given any type of berry. (Mejoberry is recommended) do not run up to its face. It will run away and it will keep running.(other monkeys near it will also run away too) simply crouch and feed it berries. Once tamed, they will love you forever.(they are a shoulder mount so put them on your shoulder and take them EVERYWHERE) they have a really cool ability to through poop at the enemy that is chasing or if it is your target. When it through the poop if it lands it will disable there ability to sprint for a little while.( and will take small amounts of dmg too while the poop is on them). I hope you found this guide helpful.please up this if so. If not helpful PLEASE DON’T DOWN THIS!!!!!

CAN NOW BE PICKED UP WITH PTERA!

Please don't down, I want wildcard to see this

Best shoulder mount ever. Once I got an Allosaurus low and my sword broke first. It was about to gnash me but here my meso goes. Throws a piece of poop exactly in the Allo’s mouth and it died.

if you whistle one of these on a door it will unlock it (like so ppl know)

You can tame the things with Barries and you can use him or her to lockpickdoors in a pvp server and they also they throw feces at enemy's.

These guys are awesome on pvp, they can pick locks and slow other people with there poop.

If you put them on wandering they'll pick up berries. When you put it on your shoulder it throws poop at your enemy and the poop does damage and slows down the target

EASIEST WAY TO TAME ON MOBILE!

- Make pen or roofless structure

- Hop on a flying tame that can carry a meso

- Find meso

- Pick up meso

- Take the meso back to your base and drop it in pen

- Make dodo egg kibble

- Put kibble in hot bar

- Crouch and sneak into the pen

- Go behind it and feed it the kibble

- Then name your new monkey friend!

/\ so people can know!

They can ride in your shoulder. Having a monkey while sailing in your pirate ship is strangely satisfying. 😎

If you want to tame one of these, but can not locate one, and have good directional hearing, these are it’s approximate voicelines:

Idle/Wandering: OH-HUH-HUH-OH-HUH!

Idle/Wandering 2: OOH-HAH-ARGH.

Upon being tamed/waking up after sleeping: (low pitched) HOO-HO-HU-HA-HAH!

Scared: TAH! WUH- WUH!

Dead: AGH!

If you sneak up behind it, give it a mejoberry, then back straight up... over and over again... you’ll tame one. Took me forever to realize that.

So basically it’s MonkE........

Always stay crouched while taming. And never get close enough to touch it. While following the monkey, if the monkey ever stops, its very likely It will turn and start to walk in a different direction. So be aware that it might walk in your direction. Hope this helps : )

I feed one of these things a single dodo kibble (on mobile) and it tamed instantly without any other factors just a heads up for those of you who don't like wasting time

Throws poop and helps keep your insulation range high so heats you up in the cold and cools you down in the hot so if you going north on the island these guys can mean the difference between freezing to death or not when your armor breaks

This creature may seem frail and weak but once you tame it you will release that it has access to the most powerful weapon on ark THE POOP CANNON

If you put stuff in its inventory like eggs or materials and then put it on your shoulder it will weigh less than it would with the items in your own inventory making it perfect to cook kibble fast

These guys are legit pigeons I fed one and 30 more came.

Don’t you think it should evolve in to a Megapithecus

Not sure if anyone else has noticed but it has a strangely specimen implant shaped pattern on the tops of its hands
