My Argie does a great job, but it depends on the 'size' of your family that your feeding

If you don't have a gigga it's Rex or spino not really anything else good argy do not come to close maybe a bear or a carno both with high dmg and it depends on the damage percent a top Rex will beat a crappy gigga... Yes I have tested this myself gigga with 56 dmg loses to my best Rex but my 120 tame doubles the meat from my best Rex

To be honest unless I'm doing a feeding from a long absence I use a bear everytime it gathers berries and meat with ease and has 1300 weight

Yeah I sprint along the shore of jungle south ( The center) and since my base is close to the swamp .. There's always plenty of Paracer hanging around it .. When i am not killing dino for meat I just spam LMB while running and gather a tons of Fiber and berries between each dino kill..

I come back base with thousand of fiber, berries and a tons of fresh meat and I i have the time I cook the remaining prime meat for extra jerky sausage !

Only if I really need plant species x or mushrooms. Anky or bronto in the Swamp when I need supplies. Other than that no way

I have a lvl 240 dire bear with like 350% dmg and about same carno. Not imprinted.
Takes a while to get meat to raise a ptera :-(
My way was going to the tundra (below the south ice) and kill mamoth/rhino and all the cats there.

Is Rex better ? Does damage post 350-400 will actually affect the amount gathered ? (I don't care if +100% dmg adds 1% meat)

Giga on burnt island ? Tamed giga vs wild giga = tamed giga butt kicked no ?

How much time should 5 fridges full of meat take ?

Giga > Rex > ....

If you dont have a Rex yet get one. It will get you far more meat per dino than a bear / carno / saber / raptor ever will.
Nothing will beat a Giga. I use a Giga with a Paracer with 6 Grills on the Platform on follow to cook it.

All the other dinos are pretty lackluster in comparison. A Spino is ok but much harder to tame than a Rex and will get a little less meat ...

Set 4 or 5 rexes on aggressive and enable wander. We name them wanderaggressive1 thru 5 so other tribes know to avoid them. Just check them to get meat like stone from doed and wood from beaver. Easy peasy
