EQUUS locations

Hey everyone!

Have you encountered an Equus? Where did you find it? I've seen two in the forested area on the mid-east coast, and one in the western forest. I know that there a lot of people who say that ark gamepedia is an unreliable source, and it seems to show that Equus can be found on Herbivore Island. Has anyone been able to confirm this from personal experience? There doesn't seem to be a heck of a lot of information on Equus locations out there.

Center Map - saw several on the Eastern island with the obelisk and several more near the lakes on Southern jungle island.

Thanks! I don't play on the Center myself, but hopefully this helps out others who are on the hunt!

They are super skittish. I wouldn't be surprised if they are running away into water as soon as you load [grid/zone/cell] so you miss them.

I haven't had a chance to check out Herbivore Island for myself, but if they do spawn there, it would be easy enough to head there with a few decent carno's and do extinction circuits to see if they can spawn.

I just wanted to know if anyone had first hand experience seeing them there. I saw one person said they found a Unicorn there, but I'd rather hear about it first hand than spend a few hours farming herbivores for no good reason.

The big mountain in the middle of the Island. They were spawning near the river on the edge of the cliff.. It's the only spot we've found horses and we've only found 3. They got some really crap chances of showing up.

Do you mean the Volcano? Or the small mountain inside of the Redwoods?

well, I wouldn't call it a volcano. Yeah, it's the one everyone else does I'm pretty sure. Just follow the river towards the redwood and they'll be on the right side.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

I have found them twice towards the 2 snow mountains coming down from volcano, just past the river before the snow biome begins.

go around the redwoods rivers, any place with large grass land clearing and you should find them.
