Their great! I have a max level one on my shoulder 24/7, and I leave him on aggressive. I was fighting an alpha raptor with my carno, and he threw the poop, and it slowed down the raptor, which really helped cause I was able to hit him at a distance that he wasnt able to hit me from.
When taming wear gillie and drop them in a enclosed area to make taming easier when tamed they ride on your shoulder and throw poop at your target it slows the target and they can unlock wood thatch and stone doors but not metal when it's riding on your shoulder and your flying it will not fall over for any reason and if you spook it while trying to tame just leave its render for a few seconds and go back it will be unspooked
I had my monkey on my shoulder so it could fling poop at some creatures that I wanted it to kill. I had it target a turtle. After a while, the turtle started running away. About 2 minutes later, it falls to the ground, completely unconscious. So use a monkey for turtle taming, I guess.
