Every number in this card is at official 1× rates, with the fastest food. Taming speed and food consumption multipliers change all of it, and most servers are not on official — the calculator at the top of this tab takes your rates, a Sanguine Elixir, and every other food this creature will eat.
Effectiveness is what decides the bonus levels: every unit of food eaten costs a slice of it, so the food that needs the fewest units finishes at the highest level. That is why kibble is worth the trouble — not that it is much faster, but that it is fewer feedings.
Torpor drains at 3.6 per second while it is unconscious, so on a long tame you will need Narcotic to keep it down. The calculator works out how much.

Megalania Toxin whenever it dies, becomes unconscious, or hatches from an egg. This mechanic exists in order to make its tribute easy to farm because of its rarity on some maps like The Island.
