The world ofArk: Survival Ascendedis filled with various types of dinosaurs. As a survivor, you can tame these dinosaurs and use them for different purposes, but it’s not an easy task during the early game when you hardly have any resources. This is where the claiming process of wild baby dinosaurs comes into play.
Before you decide to go about the open world and look for these baby dinosaurs, you first have to verify that you have an adequate amount of food for them. Once you have that ready, you may start looking for these small creatures.

Where To Find Wild Baby Dinosaurs
Spotting a dinosaur roaming around is quite a common occurrence as you explore around in this giant open world. However, it’s not as common to spot a wild baby dinosaur. There’s alsono particular place with a guaranteed spawn for these babies, so you have to rely on your luck quite a bit.
A wild baby dinosaur usually follows its parent around, soyou’ll easily be able to find them near bigger dinosaurs. One thing you need to remember about a parent with their baby dinosaur is that they’re going to fight you even if they’re one of the creatures that would usually run away.

How To Claim A Wild Baby Dinosaur
The first thing you need to do before you can go about claiming a baby dinosaur istaking care of its parentin one of these two ways:
Once you do either one of these, you’ll beable to go up to the baby dinosaur and imprint it, which essentially means you’re able to claim it. As soon as you press the imprint button, the screen to name your new dinosaur will come on the screen. As soon as you decide on a name, the first order of business is to put some food in its inventory.
Before you decide to get rid of a parent dinosaur,ensure you go up to the smaller oneand check if it’s a baby.
This is because some juvenile dinosaurs also look like babies but youcan’t claim juveniles after defeating the parent.
Another thing to remember is that most baby dinosaurs are quite slow so you should have some means of carrying them to your base. Some of thebest ways to achieve this is by using a raft or taming a Pteranodon.
