Who put beelzebufo down here? I personallyu think it should be higher up. it can craft cementing paste just from killing bugs!

Gathers chitin can be used for cementing paste.

This should be higher up. It's awesome.

The Contenders
11 Doedicurus

The doedic gathers a lot of stone making it a useful creature when it comes to building

The darn titanoboas keep killing them before I get the chance to tame one

12 Quetzalcoatlus Quetzalcoatlus is a pterosaur known from the Late Cretaceous period of North America (Maastrichtian stage), it was one of the largest known flying animals of all time.

Quetzals are awesome you can pick up almost any creature then fly way up high and drop them.

13 Wyvern

It's a good creature in pvp, collecting hide and meat. All around ts a great creature but I think it's a bit hard to tame

Its an all round good creature

14 Argentavis

Very useful for traveling

15 Carnotaurus
16 Dodo The dodo bird is an extinct flightless bird that was native to the island of Mauritius, which is east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. The birds were first seen by Portuguese sailors about 1507 and were killed by humans and their introduced animals, leading to their exinction in 1681.

They are the best creature in cark and can one shot a giga

Dodos are terrible they cannot one shot a giga.

17 Mammoth
18 Reaper King

It's a true Jack of all Trades. It can jump extremely far and high meaning it can get from point A to point B very fast. It's damage and stamina is higher than the Giga's and when it dies it leaves it's acid blood to deal high damage over time meaning it's great for PvP. It can gather pretty much any resource because it doesn't have an oxygen bar and it has super high health. And when it is gestating you can go out and kill a bunch of animals and have it at a super high level early on. It is the BEST CREATURE IN THE GAME!

It's the Giga on an adrenaline rush.

19 Sabertooth Tiger
20 Karkinos

Can carry sarcos, beat enemies over the head with them, and can carry gatherers.

21 Megalodon The megalodon is an extinct species of shark which was about 59 feet (18 meters) long and hunted in the seas until about 1.5 million years ago. It was similar to today's great white shark-but three times longer and 20 times heavier. ...read more.
