I haven't been on since the map update yesterday but some of my players are reporting the new island with the sheep has 21 sheep on it right now. With mutton being equivalent to kibble in effectiveness but actually faster, I think this has some pretty serious implications for taming of high level carnivores. Having to tame scorpions to get eggs to tame Rexes, which in turn help you get Quetzals and then those eggs being used to tame the Giga is a core part of ARKs progression gating.

I realize it is an ARK base game design choice to add the mutton but having plentiful sheep all herded together in a consistent spawn on this map will just make this more glaring. It seems crazy that you can just swing by and quickly tame a handful of sheep and take them with you to slaughter and get a max level Rex (or whatever) so easily.
