Why can u not tame these on mobile whats the pionit of adding to mobile

On my first day of Ark, I was walking around looking for a good spot.
One of these dudes spawned next to me. I thought because they are a bower, they wouldn’t be venomous.
And so I found my self punching a snake.
Then I died.
I’m an Aussie and by GOLLY I’m glad this is a snake that’s extinct.
