Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a kaprosuchus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a kaprosuchus.
Very easy to kill , tamed one with three narcotics and prime meat
So finding these guys in a swamp is pretty easy as they will pounce at you and drag you around like a rag doll. They have a venomous bite but when you get at least 4 levels of fortitude the bite should have no effect on you. If your playing in console or pc DO NOT use a bola because they will not work on the other hand, for mobile players, the bola will work on these guys. So for console and pc, taming these guys will need a club or you can punch it (tranq arrows are optional), at least some type of armor if you don’t have health leveled up high enough, and some servings of raw meat or kibble (40 or more raw meat is recommended).
The steps for console and pc are:
1. Go to a swamp (on the island)
2. Run or walk up to it
3. Let it kidnap you
4. Either punch it or hit it with your club, you may even be able to get some shots in with the bow
5. Once you knockout put the taming food in it’s inventory
6. Protect it from other, aggressive animals
7. When it’s finished taming, enjoy your very own Kaprosuchus
For mobile you will need a club or fists to knockout the dang thing (tranq arrows are also optional), one or two bolas to keep the thing in place so it can’t attack you, some type of armor (yes, again) if health is not leveled up, and kibble or raw meat to tame it.
The steps for mobile are:
1. Find a Kaprosuchus (I don’t know where the spawn on mobile)
2. Throw the bola at it and if it breaks out of the bola while knocking it out throw the other bola if you have one (The kidnapping method above will work too)
3. To knock it out either hit it with your fists or club, even better using the bow and tranq arrows
4. Once knocked out, feed it the the taming food
5. Protect it from other aggressive animals
6. Once tamed, enjoy your very own Kaprosuchus
Hoped this helped someone tame a Kaprosuchus and if it did please up this so other players can tame one too.
This will only work if, 1, the kaprosuchus is low level, 2,you are a high level, so when the kaprosuchus grabs you, punch it out, it works, make sure you aren’t near any mean creatures, or it will die, hope you can do it!
If they grab u in there mouth u can nock them out with fist 😀
How to tame
Step 1 get 2 bear traps
Step 2 lure the Kaprosuchus into the bear trap (you want 2 bear traps just in case the bear trap expires)
Step 3 feed meat
Note: Kaprosuchus is not a very good tame at a low level (I would recommend going for a lvl 50 or higher)
In mobile you CAN pick it up with an argentavis.
You can shoot tranqs at it from the back of a tall creature and it won’t be able to jump at you, but make sure your creature has high health since the kaprosuchus bite attack decreases stamina and you won’t be able to run away,
Have a friend and you play jump jousting very fun
These are completely savage.. I was barely in a swamp biome and all of a sudden im being launched at by this arsehole, next thing I know im back in the middle of the river
There’s an area near the swamp and Weathertop that’s in a clearing next to a lake that also great for gaming beelzebufo, but what you can do is try to lure a kapro out of the swamp and into this area, get up on a ledge that’s nearby and pump it full of tranqs. Was able to tame my first kapro like this.
Good for killing noobs there jaws don’t let go pvp sever join me at dodo modile sever
use bola to stun it and if your a low level with no tranq arrows try upgrading your damge and bola the kapo and go behind it and spam and make sure there is no snakes with you snakes can ruin your progress but it wont kill the kapo keep your distance and throw thr bola on the right time to make him grab you
To the person that said they don't come in purple. They do. I've tamed a purple one.
Bringing these guys to a base far away is a pain because:
1: The swamps have TONS of hostile dinos, and wild Kapros will attack your tamed one.
2: They’re weaker than Sarcos and probably even have less health than Beezulbufos
3: Slow when tamed so can’t outrun Therizinosaurs or any hostile dinos nearby rivers or mainland

Once you have a sword the swamp is your playground trust me I’ve killed almost everything that lives there.
This thing all tho cute and happy. Don’t use them for getting oil a lvl 420 megalodon will end both your lives!!!!!!
If you're somewhere in mid game and have unlocked the bear trap, use it on one of these buggers. Then, either kill 'em or tranq 'em. Your choice.
This was funny story and I lived to tell it I flyer low with pteranodon because I use my argy a lot and got jumped by one because I flew low kapros do have candy but it’s hard candy if your flying low to swamp your gonna get kidnapped like when Godzilla murdered 3 of his friends by throwing em
if you want one of these, i suggest putting on OP armor and letting it bite you (while you shoot it IN THE HEAD with tranqs). this way it cannot kill you bc u have unlimited hp. shouldn’t take many tranqs. i actually takes thsi thinking it was a sarco... but whatever it’s cool to use anyways.
