I typically prefer to just learn the default keybindings in each game I play, but in my opinion the most important ones to know are how to whistle neutral (-) and passive (;), all follow (J) and all unfollow (U), and you follow (T) and you unfollow (Y).

Good ol' classic example of this is say you have a pteranodon, which are the fastest flyers in the game. You hop off to pick up a loot crate and to your surprise a pack of raptors come out and attack it. If your pteranodon is on neutral it will start attacking back, flying at sonic speeds around the raptors. Good luck trying to remount in that fuster cluck! This is where you need to whistle passive (;), then whistle follow (J or T, depending if you have other dinos nearby), and preferably while running away to reduce the chances of the raptors targeting you... As your ptera reaches you jump up and remount.

You should probably move J to a different key like F8 or something. Also you can rebind your 8, 9, 0 to like v, b, n

I'm not really that fond of the key for a whistle and the key for defecate being right next to each other; but I am sure there is probably a joke hidden there.

Actually, maybe I should move all my whistles up to the Function keys before I find out the hard way what whistle my keyboard's mute button seems to be performing.

I have a Logitech G13 Game Board with a pretty nice key setup which works for me. If you have one of those I'd be happy to share.
