I had one. Her name was misty. She died. To a griffin. I was trying to tame an equs. AFTER FOUR HOURS I found one. I was almost done taming it and then the griffin came. There were TWO HIGH LEVEL griffins. They killed ALL of the equs and then I forgot to put misty on passive. I have lost THREE of these by not putting them on passive. Misty only had 1000 health which was nothing compared to them. She fought bravely. Luckily I found her body and got her saddle and the animal implant so I could bring her back to life. But HAHA IM AS FAR AWAY WAY FROME HOME AS IT GETS. I had to die to get back home So it was get prepared or loose all my stuff trying so I made a chest and put my important stuff in it. I died from a terror bird and respawned at home. She is gone. Please take care of your animals you don’t realize how much they truly mean to you until they are are gone. This goes for all animals not just ark. Thank you for reading.
