Tips & Strategies

I used an argie and an ichtyornis to tame one; my bird held the otter in his beak, camping by the riverside as my smaller bird caught fish for it. Easy!
More Otter Taming & KO Tips
Otters are wonderful companions, whether holding artifacts for you, or regulating your temperature, so hereโs 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 donโt 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
Use a Pteranodon and grab it on water. YES! YES YOU CAN GRAB OTTERS ON WATER USING PTERA AND PLACE OTTER ON A 1x1 THACH WALL THEN FEED WITH FISH LIKE SO EVERYONE CAN SEE
On mobile u feed them raw fish meat!!!!!!! Pls ^ if helpful and so more mobile player can see
โ On The Island, going along the Redwoods and Swamp edge on the west side, you'll reach a sort of deep pool where the swamp ends. There's always at least two otters there..โ

Whoever said this, a big thanks to you, sir! It really helped out a lot, even in Ark Ultimate Mobile Edition.
1. (Lat. 63, Lon. 27) is the more exact location for anyone who wants to find your otter more easily.
2. Raptors, Carnos, and sometimes even Rhyniognatha can spawn around that area, so if you're not feeling lucky, take your fastest Pteranodon and fly the otter to a safe place near water.
3. When taming these cute creatures in Ark Ultimate, you donโt need to crouch or hide from their view range. However, the strange part is that you do need to drag a dead fish to it first, then feed it by tapping your last hotkey (where youโre supposed to put the fish meat).
4. Besides of two otters, I also found two tiny poop-throwing Mesopithecus on the shore. So, good luck if you're also interested in those!
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
Just feed it fish on mobile. I have four words words Belle otter allo pack one like for one ancient amber for her
Ok so Iโve been seeing people say that in mobile you only need to feed them fish meat
In ultimate survivors edition mobile (I donโt know if this was a glitch or not) I have to hold a fish and have fish meat in my last slot as well
These little guys are so much easier to tame in mobile, but harder to find. You still need to kill a megipirahna, but you donโt need to grab its corpse to feed the otter. After harvesting its meat you can easily walk up to it and feed it until itโs tamed. It doesnโt run away in mobile, and Iโm 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.
best to tame a ichthyornis and carry it with you when looking for one of these guys, put the ichthyornis on hunt and retrieve it will catch a fish and bring it back golden and will have a better taming affect to feed to otter, like this up its very important peeps must know :)))
