The Aberrant Paraceratherium is a large herbivorous variant found in the Aberration biome. It reduces the weight of inventory resources, making it highly efficient for long-haul transport missions. It can be airlifted by Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment across the map.
Players typically tame it to carry large quantities of gathered materials while minimizing encumbrance.

Tame the Aberrant Paraceratherium using the knockout method. Use a Bow with Tranq Arrows or a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts to sedate it. Immobilize it first with a Chain Bola or Bear Trap.
Feed it Superior Kibble for the fastest taming. Mejoberry also works if kibble is unavailable. The process takes about 43 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Each harvest event rolls resources independently. Actual yields vary.
Killing an Aberrant Paraceratherium yields Hide, Raw Meat, and Raw Prime Meat. The Hatchet harvests the most Hide, while the Pick maximizes Raw Meat. Use a tamed dino to gather Raw Prime Meat efficiently.
While ridden, the Aberrant Paraceratherium gathers a wide range of resources with its melee attack. It harvests Berries, Crop Seeds, Mejoberry, Mushroom, Narcoberry, Rare Flower, Rare Mushroom, Stimberry, and Wood at 10× efficiency. It also gathers Cactus Sap and Fiber at 8×. This makes it one of the most versatile herbivore gatherers.
