What ARK players use the Otter for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Do you people know that you can request your animals by looking through your tames list and selecting request. They go to the nearest bed when you do that. I play on mobile so I don’t know about PC or console.

If you want to tame otters while having an otter on your shoulder to insulate you, make sure you set their status to passive, or they will harvest the fish you’re trying to drag to the new prospects.

One thing I see people haven't been talking about regarding these cute little guys is that their insulation also makes for good egg hatching. Of course, for max efficiency for this you need a group but they do help!

Good enough fish hunter, though not as effective as Ichthyornis since it can’t one-shot fish & doesn’t give them a prime boost. However, it can get silica & black pearls when killing fish. If it has pearls, you’ll be notified by an animation.
