Roll Rat is a passive creature in Ark Aberration that will not bother you unless you mess with it. This creature burrows into the ground and returns with gems, and if you choose to steal the gems, be ready to run, as it will chase you.
Besides burrowing, the Roll Rat has an armored plating on its back that allows it to spin around, moving fast, but consuming stamina. Finding this creature is not difficult in Ark Aberration, but for taming, you must follow a unique strategy, which we will cover in this guide.
How to Tame a Roll Rat?

Before the taming process begins, grab honey and place it in your hot bar. Now, when you locate a roll rat, wait for it to burrow, and throw the honey inside the hole while its tail is up in the air.

The taming bar will begin, and the creature will emerge from the ground. You will need to repeat this process a couple of times till rat is completely tamed.
