Common Name: Giant Camel Species: Megatylopus Adaptecus Time: Late Miocene - Late Pliocene Diet: Herbivore Temperament: Contrary
Wild:
Megatylopus is a large extinct species of camel. they are well built up to survive in harsh diverse locations. you can spot them in a variety of different habitats from the desserts to the cold snowy areas and to the grasslands in-between. These creatures are a lot more surprising than they appear too, at first glance you might think that they are harmless, however they actually have quite a bad temperament. I have heard stories about how contrary they can be, they have very powerful kicks and surprisingly enough they spit too. They might even bite you, so be careful. With how large these camels are it seems that small creatures don't really approach or disturb them. When you spot the Megatylopus, others normally are not too far away, you can often find them in herds.
Domesticated:
These Giant camels are quite valuable if you can manage to tame one, when they warm up to you there actually pretty loyal however, sometimes they still might occasionally spit on you so you do got to be careful not to upset them. these camels have evolved and adapted over time and make great travel companions, they even can keep a survivor warm in colder climates. I have heard rumours of them being able to produce a delicious milk that is able to not only sustain survivours but tames and creatures also.
Abilities: Camel milk - camels can be milked to provide nutritional milk suitable for both survivors which it provides them with both food and water, and can be fed to baby dinosaurs. it would help dinosaurs grow healthier and keep them fuller for longer. Insulation - these camels can keep survivors warmer in different climates so they provide an insulation buff to the rider. Toxic Spit - these camels have adapted over time and I am not sure if its something the ark caused, but their saliva seems to have an effect that causes those who have been spat on to become super drowsy super fast, try not to get spit on to much or you will pass out. Weight reduction - when saddled its very impressive how much these camels are able to carry! they are very efficient in carrying things across long distances at ease. They have a weight reduction on all resources.

Taming:
So taming these creatures involves a silly little method. First you would want to make sure that you are in a safe area, if the area is not safe you would want to either clear the area or lure it to somewhere safe. They will be able to sense/smell the food you have for taming them. Then you actually want to anger it by by not giving it the food quick enough so it gets annoyed and spits on you, knocking you unconscious and then it will take some of the food from your inventory. you want to repeat this process until you have tamed it. then you will have your very own giant camel.
Saddle Concept:
Two different versions of saddles, One being a platform saddle which surviors can build upon. The other being a simple saddle that could hold up to two surivors, with an option to add various attachments such as planters to the saddle which could work as a portable crop plot. so you can plant and grow your own crops on the go.
