Chibi-Festive Shinehorn (Red) — Detailed Guide
A festive Shinehorn in chibi form
Chibi-Festive Shinehorn (Red) is a chibi-pet for ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki ties it to Winter Wonderland 7 and says it has been available in every event since; the version that added it is 355.3. Its description reads: "Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!"
Three crates that can contain it
Our records list 3 crate types that can hold it: the Raptor Claus Gift, Fishing Items (Valentine's) and Fishing Meat (Valentine's).
Earning extra survivor levels
With the pet equipped, killing certain predators gives it experience. It has five level-ups, and after each one the survivor wearing it at that moment gets a permanent +1 to their maximum level, up to 5 extra. The wiki's shared list covers creatures such as the 
Alpha Fire Wyvern, 
Alpha Basilisk, 
Alpha Karkinos and Enraged Corrupted Triceratops. Some only count in one game: the 
Alpha Chrysaora and 
Alpha Tridacna in ASE on Steam, the 
Astral Megalodon and 
Alpha Hulking Revenant in ASA.
Where the pet sits
ASE equips chibis in the off-hand slot and ASA in its own Chibi slot. When the survivor sleeps in a bed, the pet sits nearby. It is a normal inventory item rather than an unlocked skin, and it drops on death together with everything else the survivor carries. It weighs 0 and the stack size is 1.
