Unpopular opinion, i actually find the rhyniognatha cute, not in the normal kind like a puppy but in a different way that i cant explain, i would keep one as a pet if i could, maybe if it were small kitten sized, 10/10 creature and my favourite creature in ark alongside the carcha.

Is it normal that when I give an order on the whistle it does not respond to follow me or catch up with me? The rest of the commands from the whistle are responded to except for the follow-up. When I give her an order and I am far or near, she does not follow me. I checked everything, whether it is weight or something else, but it is no use. She does not follow me. Is this normal for this creature?

- 1 host - 1 male= 1 baby

Male= rhyno

Mom=rhyno

Baby=rhyno

Baby<10% die

Therefore male+mom+baby=population of Rhynoganthas

If twenty males then

20=20 babies if 10% die and half are males then

20 males =18 adults=9 males after one cycle

4 after two cycles etc. until 55% chance 0 by cycle 4. No males = no babies = extinction.

SO WHY ARE THERE SO MANY OF THEM!!!!

i absolutely love these things bro, theyre so adorable,,,, have u seen their eyes???? i made a trap very easily relatively early game and i needdd a collection. i alrdy have 2, first one is a purple and blue one i got from a mutated trike❤️ and the second is a beautiful black one with pale green underbelly. i dont even care about the stats because they have ranged projectiles and theyre fast and badass. i need. i need to make a pretty collection. literally seeking out pretty trikes and rexes that i can sacrifice. im so excited to get the saddle bro. i love bugse. the first encounter with one was intense tho. terrifyingly big and fast missle bug

I feel like these shouldn't exist to be honest. To get one rhyniognatha you need to kill one male rhyniognatha. Although the female could theoretically reproduce twice, there is still a really bad ratio of one born rhyniognatha for every dead rhyniognatha. When the female dies of old age, the rhyniognathas of the second generation have to kill half of each other per reproduction. In addition, they also have to kill the dinos they're impregnated into. If the baby rhyniognatha doesn't survive, then you've lost one rhyniognatha that cannot be replaced. In theory, the rhyniognathas should never exist in the first place unless they can reproduce at least twice per gestation period. How do y'all like my math?

Today ima teach u how to tame a demon mantis. Get a bronto, paracer, rex, trike, or other impregnable dinos, kill a MALE demon mantis steal his pheromone, find a suitable female demon mantis and get its health below 100, feed your impregnable dino the pheromone, let the demon impregnate the dino, feed the dino its cravings, your dino will die in the process btw, wait for it to fall over and give birth to the demon, claim your demon mantis.
