I have recently discovered that these are by far the most valuable tame for any level of player.

Why you ask? Try taming 1 and then put anything at in it's inventory and see what happens ;) also you don't have to feed them AT ALL

Reminder that oil, silica pearls, and black pearls only have a chance to drop from these guys, instead of the normal "harvest it with a high damage per swing weapon"

also they only drop one of either at a time so not recommended for farming black pearls with

Tameable using a fish basket we need to stop the trilo massacre these lil guys are goofy pets

On Aberration craft a fish basket, deploy it near one and after a few seconds you can pickup the basket with the trillo inside you then have a timer to release it

They seem to spawn in the south of the standard island map, usually near the water on a sandy beach at dusk and dawn

In mobile you can find these in the bay in Herbivores Island

I once got 157 chitin from just one of these!! Definitely recommend going for these guys for chitin and oil, pearls (you get both) are just a bonus! They like to spawn around beachs and shallow rivers #Wolfs4Life ❤️❤️🐺❤️❤️ -Wolfa191

Kill these on sight to get resources that you’ll need later because these suddenly disappear when you need them

Very good for low level oil, chitin, some raw meat, black and white pearls collecting, but there somewhat rare to find.

I struggle to find silica pearls on the island so at one point in time I hunted these guys down to the brink of extinction. (I basically just slaughter them).

Hey guys for those who are playing on the island at the bit u spawn on the trilobites spawn mostly at 12:00 hope this helps someone

I have found a lot on the herbivore island and the bottom left corner of the map on the island.

Sure does come in handy when these guys are around. They crawl out of the water every morning at the same time every day. Easy way to get black pearls and oil

What are the coordinates where they spawn on mobile. Please say I need them.

When you tame these guys far from home, keep in mind that the Megalosaurus CANNOT pick them up in its jaws when tamed. This caused me a long hike home. Keep it in the basket until you’d like to release it. More testing required to see if any mounts can carry it when tamed!

ARK has now outdone themselves the most useless creature is now harder to tame then a trike

My favorite Dino can now be tamed for $20...

These are tameable for Pc Users, all you need to learn is the Fish Basket engram and drop one down near a high lvl trilobite and then stand in the trilo’s way and guide it til it’s near your basket then capture it, release it before it expires in your inventory then cryopod it up for save keepings! Trick no ones sharing is you can hide blueprints in abberation trilobites and then hide them underwater ;) p.s you can also tame leeches and then leave them on aggro for biowarfare at obelisks or transmitters lol or Sabre salmon then catch release then cryo them for easier otter taming or attaching c4 to said salmon then attacking underwater targets....

I want these guys for oil and pearls but I never find them

These are soooooooo valuable, you may not need them right away when first playing the game, but kill them and collect everything they drop anyways. Kill them when you dont need them, because eventually, you will, and if you dont, you'll regret it later. I go whole days trilobite hunting on my spino.
