Ark: Survival Evolved Fjordur - How To Get Sanguine Elixir

gamespot.com:

There's a bounty of new resources that players can obtain on the new expansion map in Ark: Survival Evolved, Fjordur. Many of these resources are relatively easy to acquire, such as using Congealed Gas Balls to craft hazard gear or charged materials. If you're looking to find out how to find and use Congealed Gas Balls, we went over that in a previous Ark guide. For today, we will be going over how to find Sanguine Elixir, which can be one of the most useful items in all of Fjordur as long as players know how to use it.

Sanguine Elixir has a fairly basic use, as it simply allows players to tame creatures 30% faster when they consume it. This can be one of the most important resources you obtain in Fjordur, as some of the new unique creatures can be a true hassle to tame. Speaking of those unique creatures, if you've been avoiding them up until now, that might soon change. One of them holds the key to unlocking the Sanguine Elixir, which we explain further below.

In order to unlock the Sanguine Elixir, though, you will need to tame the Desmodus.
