Mesopithecus Taming bug: Hunger and health drain-switch. Sudden Monkey Death with full hunger
I think I saw something about this happening with one of the other creatures a while ago but this just happened to me with a level 40 Mesopithecus. I fed it once, accientally aggro'd it, and from that point it's hunger remained full while it's health depleted until it just keeled over. I couldn't feed it, ergo I couldn't tame it. Only happened once though, myself and another on the same server have both successfully tamed lower level ones.

So far, I have tried to tame three and all three died just like you said. This is a major tame bug.

i have tamed 6 all on kibble and all within 3 minutes from start to finish, if there is a bug i have not seen it. But i have seen people messing up the tame by scaring it, and in that may lie the problem, if it gets scared to death not a lot you can do lol. Highest level i have tamed is 76 which took about 6 -7 kibble and 4 minutes as it was in a tricky spot to feed, it also ran once but i could continue tame after i left it alone. Maybe once scared you are running after it to not lose sight of it and the scare has no time to stop?

I would like to also report this bug. They just start losing health and dying after awhile. No longer get hungry, lose health and die. Had 3-4 die during the excruciating taming process. Maybe the monkeys could be a bit more friendly. Monkeys can actually be pretty brave with strangers, who have food.

The taming process is absolutely fine if you're careful, only takes a few minutes normally, but the one that bugged for me I followed it for about 20 minutes after the first feed, I assumed it just took longer at first because it was way higher level than the other one i caught, but then noticed it was down to about 5% health when it started on full, then a few minutes later.... RIP in pieces.
