Chibi-Skeletal Jerboa — Detailed Guide
The Chibi-Skeletal Jerboa as a level booster
The Chibi-Skeletal Jerboa is one of the chibi-pets of ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. The ARK Wiki says it comes from the ARK: Fear Evolved 4 event in ASE (version 315.2) and has come back with every event after that. The game describes it this way: "Earn XP from Alpha creature kills when equipped, to increase its level and earn additional max-levels for your Survivor!"
How the pet earns levels
The pet gains experience when its owner kills certain predators while it is equipped. Five level-ups are possible. Each one gives the survivor wearing it at that moment a permanent extra level on top of their cap, with 5 extra levels at most.
Among the creatures the wiki lists are the 
Alpha Basilisk, 
Alpha Deathworm, 
Alpha Mosasaur, Alpha Skeletal Rex and 
Alpha Surface Reaper King. ASE on Steam adds the 
Alpha Chrysaora and 
Alpha Malleocephalus, and ASA adds the 
Alpha Hulking Revenant, 
Astral Rock Drake and 
Enraged Lightning Triceratops, among others.
Slot, behaviour and death
The equip slot depends on the game: off-hand in ASE, a dedicated Chibi slot in ASA. Equipped, the pet walks at the survivor's front left and copies their movement and facing. On a mount it rides in the survivor's lap. Chibi-pets count as plain items, not unlockable skins: this one drops with your other belongings when you die and is lost if the death cache is left behind.
