Don't know how to level up my Iguanadon
Okay so recently I just tamed an Iguanadon and it is currently level 37. This creature seemed like a pretty good travelling companion and it had a lot of stamina (roughly 300), can carry some weight and was a pretty beefy boy when it came to health. But then I saw its damage and knew it wasnt meant for fighting (in the low 100) but the speed on it was pretty slow (at exactly 100). So I don't know how I can use this dinosaur. In my current state, it's possibly my fastest dinosaur because I have lost a bunch of sabertooth lately. But it's also my weakest dinosaur too. How should I upgrade this bad boy?

Low Level Mount: Moderately easy to tame (just remember to bring a bola or a bear trap!).
Pack Mule: Stamina does not drain when running on all fours (Level up Speed and Weight)
Long Distance Runner: Since stamina does not drain while on all fours, running speed is decent, swim speed isn't awful, and has the ability to jump, can pump all points into speed for a cross-island mount (Level up Speed)
Farming Aid: Allows for berries to be turned into seeds, making once hard to get berries much easier, e.g., Narcoberries. Also great for making organic oil from bulk seeding of berries if you play on primitive plus.
Charge Light Feeder: In Aberration, the Iguanodon can take on a unique role of providing mass quantities of food for your charge light tames, as they prefer a steady diet of seeds compared to other food types. Simply gather berries, have the iguanodon seed them, then place the seeds in food troughs, and your charge light tames will be well fed for quite some time.

Thanks, I might go with the long distant runner or the farming aid. But if it does go on long distants, will it be able to outrun a pack of raptors?
