Overview
The Deinotherium is a large herbivore with a support role. It reduces the weight of Wood in its inventory by 75%. This makes it highly efficient for gathering and transporting large quantities of Wood.
It is primarily tamed for its exceptional wood-carrying efficiency and gathering capabilities. The Deinotherium excels in early to mid-game base building and resource farming operations.

More about taming the Deinotherium
Deinotherium's special tame uses Beer Jars and requires a living, awake survivor of level 85 or higher. Head, ear and trunk tells affect feeding safety; aggressive ear or trunk states make feeding unsafe.
Taming a Deinotherium requires a special passive method. Approach slowly with a Beer Jar in your last hotbar slot. Watch for three acceptance signals: head shaking, ear flapping, and trunk shaking. Once all three appear, stand under its trunk to offer the beer.
After it drinks, retreat for 30 seconds and repeat the process. If the trunk rolls up or ears press flat, reset your approach. The creature becomes hostile if rejection signals are ignored. Use the calculator below for your settings.
