use your ears! otters make a quiet sound that almost passed as background ambiance. if you hear chattering while you're near a river, there could be an otter nearby. they're otherwise hard to find, sue to their rarity and small size.
Otter

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Their food and health stats are very low, only eats Fish meat and lots of it. Kill piranhas in the area before sending it into the water as they will shred your furry little friend faster than you can say
"But it was wearing an ascendant riot helmet ffs!"
!!!! It wouldn’t accept fish meat, but instead wanted the whole fish !!!!
Kill a coelacanth and drag it’s body to the otter!
WARNING! Only feed your otters FISH 🐟 MEAT. FISH!!! Mine almost died because I thought regular meat was fine.
If you are on mobile you can tell if they are starving when they have a food icon above them. Idk about console or pc though.
Up if this is helpful or saved…

It will be nice if otter on mobile can carry artifacts like pc

Tamed Otters do not eat regular meat, only fish meat. My otter was refusing to eat even though she had plenty of meat in her inventory and plenty of meat in a nearby trough. To remedy this, I tried multiple things; moving the trough closer, giving her more meat, and even force feeding her. She would not gain hunger with regular meat. The moment I got fish meat, she ate. I'm not sure if they can eat other types of meats like mutton though.
my otter died to a Carno as well. So I pulled out my crossbow and went
DIE CARNO DIEEEE
I just loved him. Rip tiny otter boi
I love otter :3 otter make me happy :3 I tame otter and otter love me like I love him :3
Fun fact: I will not aggro wild dinos so don't worry when you die while carrying a otter just worry about finding them.
I found one in a really dangerouse area and let me say it was worth it I love otters sadly my little bouncy died to a raptor soon after tamed I forgot we were in a dangerous area. Poor little bouncy :( she bounced at my feet it was so cute :)

⚠️ WARNING: YOU WILL MELT IF U SEE ONE, IT IS TOO CUTE ⚠️ Ok.. now that is out of the way, if u do survive the cuteness, this is how to tame it. I suggest you mainly look around the redwoods on the island, I have found 4 of them there. After you found one, you wanna try to wait until it is on land because it is easier that way. Next you feed it your raw fish. Prime fish works best. After a little bit of waiting you can feed it again. After a couple of fish, they should be yours!
Otter Tips:
1-If you sent them hunting fish, theres a chance the otter will harvest black pearls.
2-You can use otters as an incubator, place 3 otters in a triangular shape, place the fertilized egg in the center, and the egg will hatch.

2-You can use otters as an incubator, place 3 otters in a triangular shape, place the fertilized egg in the center, and the egg will hatch.
3-You can place an otter on your shoulder, and it will provide cold resistance if you are in a cold area, or heat resistance if you are in a hot area.
4-You can also strengthen the cold/heat resistance if you upgrade the otter's melee damage stat.
5-If you killed them (even on purpose), that's all good (: they aren't even that cute anyway.
6-They can equip hats.
7-They only eat FISH MEAT (Even when tamed), otherwise they will starve and die.

I found them at 60 30 on ragnorok
Whoever wanted an X-Otter back in 2021, you got your wish.

this is easily the best shoulder pet in the entire game like after a couple levels health and melee go up so much so he can help and protect you at least a little he helps regulate your body temperature so you don't get hot or cold and this is just adorable don't forget the fact that he can hold artifacts
REMEMBER: Otters are Piscivorous meaning they ONLY eat FISH, ONLY FISH alright?
After taming it only eatsh fish meat. The Wiki lies.
If you put an eggs near them and they have a high enough melee damage on it any eggs close to it will start to incubate
Put a Rex skull skin on a flak or riot helmet (for maximum protection) and put it on your otter and it’s adorable
