Mesopithecus — Detailed Guide
The Mesopithecus is a small monkey and one of the earliest shoulder pets. It rides on your shoulder, throws feces at enemies, warns of intruders, and only half the weight in its inventory counts against you.
Where to find it
It lives in forests, beaches and plains on most maps in both games. It is notably frequent on Lost Colony and Ragnarok in ASA and on Genesis Part 1.
Taming
A passive tame. Put 
Basic Kibble or Mejoberries in your last hotbar slot and feed it when prompted. Kibble works better, because berries make it starve quickly. Crouch as you approach, since startling it costs health.
Breeding
- Birth: live birth after a gestation of about 2.6 hours.
- Growth: a baby matures in about 1.3 days at 1x.
Uses
- Shoulder pet: bites up close and throws feces that slow targets and block healing items.
- Guard: screeches to warn of intruders and can open thatch and wooden doors from the inside.
- Gathering: picks berries from nearby bushes when it is off your shoulder.
