Used to craft

Raw Mutton is a food item in ARK: Survival Evolved. It can be obtained by harvesting Ovis Ovis.

Usage[]

Can be used to tame carnivores at slightly increased speed and Taming Effectiveness compared to Raw Prime Meat Raw Prime Meat. This is particularly useful for creatures without a preferred kibble, such as the Dimorphodon since the Taming Effectiveness is better to the next best thing. It restores usually 50 points of Food and provides 187.5 Affinity (progress). For comparison Kibble usually provides 400, Raw Prime Meat provides 150, and Raw Meat provides 50 Affinity. The following table lists the exceptions.

When harvesting wild Ovis make sure your dino does not eat the mutton itself (put food into its inventory or make sure food is at max).
