The Yeti is an Alpha-tier creature in ARK: Survival Evolved, and to-date the only Alpha Herbivore.

Basic Info[edit | edit source]

With the introduction of the Snow Cave, an Alpha variant of Gigantopithecus was added. These Yetis have significantly higher base stats and are untameable. Due to spawning within a Hard Difficulty cave, they are also guaranteed to spawn at exceptionally high levels - anywhere up to 350!

Behavior[edit | edit source]

These apes are vicious, terrifying creatures that will decimate any adventurers hoping to step foot inside. Stay clear from them, or use extremely powerful guns and weaponry to slaughter them before they get their powerful hands on you!

Appearance[edit | edit source]

The Yeti always spawns with all its color regions white.

Color Scheme and Regions

This section displays the Yeti's natural colors and regions. For demonstration, the regions below are colored red over an albino Yeti. The colored squares shown underneath each region's description are the colors that the Yeti will randomly spawn with to provide an overall range of its natural color scheme. Hover your cursor over a color to display its name and ID.

Server admins can use this region information in the Console Command "cheat SetTargetDinoColor <ColorRegion> <ColorID>".
For example, "cheat SetTargetDinoColor 0 6" would color the Yeti's "fur mane" magenta.

Region 0: Fur Mane	Region 1 is not used for this Creature.	Region 2 is not used for this Creature.
Region 3 is not used for this Creature.	Region 4: Fur Accent	Region 5: Skin

Region 0: Fur Mane
