(Also I would suggest having spare otters, they die pretty easily. I learnt it the hard way it didn’t take long to find more though only took about A FRICKING HOUR! But I think I found a spawn spot it’s near swamp and redwoods, hope you can find it, btw it’s best to breed them, you have a chance of getting twins / triplets I got twins on my first try, their both female :) gl!)
More Otter Taming & KO Tips
Otters are wonderful companions, whether holding artifacts for you, or regulating your temperature, so here’s a guide to help you tame one.
1. Otters are found in most of the rivers on the island, so I recommend just following rivers until you spot one. Sometimes they can blend in with the fish, so take it slow, so you don’t miss one.
2. When you find one, it can be useful to trap it, because they tend to move around a LOT. Either way, you need to kill fish to feed it. The fish have a number next to their name like 1x or 2.3x or .5x. This correlates with the size of it, the higher the number, the bigger the fish. The highest number or biggest fish gives the most taming progress, so go for those. In addition, the type of fish matters. Sabertooth salmon give more progress than coelacanth which is better than piranha.
3. Once you kill the fish, you need to drag it. Then go to the otter. While holding the dead fish and looking at the otter, it will let you feed it to the otter. Repeat this until the tame is finished
Happy taming!
If this helped, please hit the upwards triangle, so more people can see

Just feed it fish on mobile. I have four words words Belle otter allo pack one like for one ancient amber for her
Use a pteranodon to place it into a trap so it doesn’t move around. Then, kill fish and drag their bodies over to feed the otter. Remember: Do not harvest the fish’s dead bodies, drag it over once they are dead. The otter spawns in most rivers if there are otters on that map. These guys are furry, cuddly, and useful. They can store items for you with a 50% weight deduction on your shoulder and keeps you insulated in extreme temperatures.
Use an Argentavis' C-attack to pick the otter up and hold it in its beak. This makes it so that you can keep the otter in one place and don't have to keep track of it while getting fish. It also makes feeding the otter larger fish much easier because the character view isn't blocking access to the otter's "feed fish to tame" prompt.
I almost had my otter die while clapping a bronto with a shotgun because he only eats fish
1 yes = 1 more otters in ARK 2
These little guys are so much easier to tame in mobile, but harder to find. You still need to kill a megipirahna, but you don’t need to grab its corpse to feed the otter. After harvesting its meat you can easily walk up to it and feed it until it’s tamed. It doesn’t run away in mobile, and I’m sure you can use any fish meat.
Dear owner of Harry otter. I feel bad for you. I hope you find him. If not, go where you equip clothes, tap your number of tamed, and request him.
