Baby: The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

At birth, baby holds ~75 food - refill every ~1 min
During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
More about breeding the Brute Mammoth
Instead of laying eggs, the Brute Mammoth carries its young through a gestation period. Gestation takes approximately 8 hours at default rates.
The baby Brute Mammoth takes approximately 3 days and 10 hours to fully mature at default rates - over an extremely long period, one of the longest in the game. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
The Brute Mammoth's growth progresses through three stages: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~494 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~33h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~41h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Imprint bonuses are significant: a fully imprinted Brute Mammoth gains 30% extra damage and damage resistance with its imprinter mounted. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.
Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Brute Mammoth babies through all three growth stages. Budget ~494 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Brute Mammoth babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Brute Mammoth is a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.
With 3,800 base Health, the Brute Mammoth is one of the toughest creatures in the game. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Brute Mammoth has decent hitting power. With 495 base Stamina, the Brute Mammoth has solid stamina reserves. A base Weight of 1000 means an enormous weight pool.
The Brute Mammoth roams the ARK as a wild, untamable creature. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Brute Mammoth is worth 18 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.62 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
