To tame you need to drag a fish over to them.

Easily tameable by putting in Argys mouth then feed it fish

In ark ultimate edition mobile - if u want tame otter then follow methods.

1st kill a fish then collect meat and place on last hotbar.

2nd kill a fish and drag , then go near otter and when u tap , otter feed your fish meat which u place on last hotbar.

Hope it will help u

Guys no joke this thing can attack you be aware of this

On mobile it’s a passive tame with any fish meat

Guys this is for mobile players I am playing on a single player 2.25

And the otter can't hold on to artifact like in normal pc ark I spent hours dying in the swamp for it and found out the hard way so please don't make the mistake

Otters are just gods among ark nothing truly wants to kill em we all know that they are just too cute

Otters can hold more than 1 of the same artifact in their inventory. Great for artifact runs.

If you want to find one on ark mobile here’s my guide

His is the list of stuff you need

Pteradon

A box somewhere for storage

Here’s what you do you start by placing the otter box then you find an otter with is the hardest part then use your pteradon to pick up the otter and bring it to the box then all you have to do is drag fish in and voila

They do not hold infinite artifacts on mobile, unfortunately

It took a hot second to find mine, but my recommendation is to look in the red woods (on the island) and make sure you have the fish on hand. Good luck.

Excellent for warmth in the mountains! Raise the attack for better insulation

🪙TIP:If you can't find one of these cute otters you will have to look close to rivers mostly rivers near swamps but not in swamps here is coordinates to find one on the regular island wich is now the only map available for mobile!60.0°East 30.0°North on a gps simply Lat:60.0 Lon:30.0.If you get there be sure you are familiar with minecraf oxelotle sounds they are similar to minecraft oxelotle sounds and they should spawn near or in those two ponds you will also find alot of cybertoothfish too if you don't enough have raw fish meat!

I'm pretty sure that otters work like scarfs so they keep you warm. not sure if that's confirmed but it works for me

On mobile u can kill any fish harvest it’s meet and passive tame the otter.on other u have to kill a saber tooth or piranha and drag it’s body to the otter to make it eat it and tame it that way.but yeah

Once I found an otter on the beach but it was eaten by a mega piranha

you can find these cute little fella's at the beaches (they are mostly in the water)

They spawn near the red woods rivers and lakes but that’s for mobile and they tame faster with raw prim fish that’s mobile also

don't forget to give it a helmet, it's very weak!! 🥺

I finally found an otter near the rivers and a random spino ran in and ate it :(
