Record
"That looks to be the stuff that Rockwell's been using to augment and aggro all his weird creatures. Maybe you can use it against him... You know, fight fire with fire? Bet he won't expect you to use his precious mutagen to beef up your own critters. Can't wait to see the look on his, uh, faces when you sic those muties on him! Just be careful handling that stuff in the meantime, yeah? HLNA Mutagen Record sound.ogg"

Usage
Each creature will require a certain amount of Mutagen in its inventory before it can actually be used. The tooltip for the Mutagen in the creature's inventory will show how much that creature needs so that it can be used. Once you have enough Mutagen in the creature's inventory, press while hovering over it in the creature's inventory to apply the stat bonuses. Mutagen can be used only once on a creature.

The stat bonus is different depending on whether the dino was tamed, or bred:
 * Tamed (only wild ancestors or clones of such tames): 5 levels are put into, , , and each as pre-tame levels, resulting in an increase of 20 levels overall. These levels can be inherited by the offspring.
 * Bred: 1 level is put into, , , and each as post-tame levels, resulting in an increase of 4 levels overall. These levels cannot be inherited by the offspring.

Cost
Required amount of Mutagen is only dependent on the species, and not the level or the bred/tamed status. Other creatures not listed here (Titans, vehicles, tames with inaccessible inventories) cannot have their stats boosted by Mutagen.

Bugs

 * is not refreshed after Mutagen is applied. The player should their creature immediately after use.
