Helicoprion was a medium-large to large shark relative from the Permian period, that went extinct during the Great Dying mass extinction. It has a circular tooth whorl on its bottom jaw and used it to cut and tear its prey. They were most likely loners, but came together in breeding grounds during their mating season. Helicoprion's closest living relative is the Ratfish, or Chimera, which is a small, cute shark relative. Helicoprion would be musch faster than the Megalodon, and would give a bleed status affect. It would be a great harvester of organic polymer, hide, and keratin. I think it should have a pack boost capping at +2 other Helicoprion. It would have a leap movement, and a "suffocation" meter so it can flop around on land for a short time, to drag Kairuku down to the water and drown them. (hence organic polymer harvester). To tame them you would need to find their eggs in sandpiles underwater on the ocean floor, similar to the Genesis 1 retrieval missions, and similar to the wyvern and rock drake egg-stealing mechanic. Art: ARK's Helicoprion would have patterning to a chimera. (Art by me)

aggressive carnivorous live offspring (when mating the must not be around others of there kind or they can go into a frenzy and kill each other. it must just be one male and one female.) tamed by leading it to some mantas/prey to kill and eat pack animals 3 being the max when in a pack they get a pack bonus only 6.7ft in size, but they are said to have a big mouth and big fins with sharp spins inside the fins. This made them faster swimmers. most fossils show that they had up to 12 rows of smaller teeth for shredding there prey. they are speculated to have had reptile scales which was natural armor. ideally the scales can be shed to have buffs in the water. this can be done in 3 levels level one gives 10% movement speed. level 2 gives 20% more armor. level 3 sharpens the fins and allows for the bleed effect to happen under water. the naturally produce one of the three levels of scales in their inventory. these scales can be used to create armor for water creatures. each level protecting against different things. both male and female produce armor scales that give armor boost up to 10% but starting at 5 percent. as they level they gain the ability to produce one of two different armor types. males will also produce a scale that create a natural slim making the creature harder to grab. females will produce a scale that makes electric attacks less effective. (all pictures came from google sorry for the inconvenience)

Pristiophorus cirratus This saw shark is the best collector of fungal wood. Its taming would not be so difficult since this shark is neutral, and to tame it you have to give it honey pots to make it yours This shark wouldn't have that much damage but it can help you in many situations.

Edestus would be found in deep oceans and would be highly aggressive. It would be rideable but not require a saddle, although you can give it a saddle. It would be useful to tame because it’s strangely shaped jaws allow it to gather more prime fish meat than anything else on the arks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edestus

Name: Eel Shark Species: Xenacanthus Time: Triassic Period Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive Wild: A fierce and formidable shark species, the Xenacanthus is known for its sharp, spiky fins and powerful tail. Traveling in large schools for protection and hunting, these sharks are a sight to behold as they glide through the water. Their sharp fins make them formidable predators, capable of hunting and defending against even the largest aquatic animals. Their venomous spines make them even more dangerous, capable of delivering a painful and potentially deadly sting to any predator that dares to attack them. Their tough, armored scales protect them from the dangers of the deep, and their ability to survive in a wide range of environments makes them one of the most adaptable shark species in existence.

Xenacanthus Tonic - A powerful and unique potion that can be crafted using the venom of the Xenacanthus shark and the scales. This tonic provides a variety of benefits to the player who drinks it.

Name: Helicoprion Diet: Carnivore/Picivore size : 7.5 meters/ 25 feet Helicoprion is one of the stranger 'sharks' in the fossil record, although at the time that Helicoprion swam the oceans there were actually many sharks that did not conform to the 'standard' form that we know today. The majority of the remains of this shark are the teeth which are fossilised in a spiral pattern like the shell of an ammonite, in fact when first discovered these fossils were actually thought to be some kind of exotic ammonite shell. These arrangements of fossil teeth are today referred to as a 'tooth-whorl'. Ability: Because of it’s tooth-whorl it would cause bleeding damage to it’s opponent. As another ability it would be a great underwater farmer. Using it’s strong jaw it would be able to crush even hard shells, making it a good black pearl harvester, tooth whorl could be also used as chainsaw to farm wood and meat efficiently under water. Weight reduction of 50% on wood , 75% on black pearls. Possibility to grab small dinos and humans and increase damage of 10% due to his tooth whorl . Tooth-whorl : 1st stance ( chain saw ) that would be the farming stance for wood and ability to deshelling increase dmg to shell dinos like carbonemys , ammonite and etc. 2nd stance ( whip ) the Helicoprion would stretch his tooth whorl and be able to whip players of their raiders like megaladon , tusoteuthis and etc. Would be a great addition if we would ever get a water map in ARK i know there was talks about it , I don’t know if would a water map comes along, due to the hard work WC is putting into ARK2 but even if they don’t would still be amazing dinos to be added to ARK

From the album: Dossiers
Common Name: Megalodon Species: Carcharodon ultramegalodon Time: Miocene-Pliocene Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive Wild: Were it not restricted to the waters, Carcharodon ultramegalodon might be the most dangerous creature on the island. As powerful and dangerous as the Tyrannosaurus is on land, Megalodon is its equal in the water. In addition, it has a speed advantage over any non-aquatic creature. Megalodons need large quantities of food to sustain themselves, so they attack most creatures immediately on sight. Smaller fish are the sole exception I've seen; I believe this is because they cost more energy for Megalodons to catch than they would gain. Domesticated: If someone is able to tame this beast, that person would be the undisputed ruler of the oceans around the island and would have access to resources no one can safely find!
