Try to find a megladon by the shore and tranq it out it shallow water or on shore so it can't attack you.

Megalodon taming is so easy but transfer to bace is so hard because many megalodon in sea all kill your megalodon but you tame megalodon Level

megalodons CAN'T get into dino gatesï¼u can't build a boat with underwater taming pen to trap them.just lure one to shallow water and tranq it.
1. Get a itchthy
2. Get a good crossbow (any works)

How to tame a megaladon easily

2.swim underwater
3.keep stinging him until hes knocked out
This is legit did it myself
Tame these guys from the back of a baryonyx. One stun attack and a few tranq arrows and you're set.
To tame you have to use a crossbow because a long neck rifle can't shoot underwater.
Like do that other people can see it.
1. Wait till it is eating a turtle.
2. Tranq it and kill its friends.
3. Use the meat 🥩 from its friends to tame it.
What they're good for: I'd say they're good for defense mainly. You could also take them out hunting for fish food.
Where to find: ocean water
How to tame: get a crossbow and tranq arrows. Find a shark close to shore. Shoot shark and swim to shore, swim back out into water and shoot. Repeat this until shark is down. Feed meat and narcotics if necessary. *guaranteed to not get bitten this way*
I personally tame sharks, crypod them and go back to my base where I live right next to a small lake. I put 3-10 sharks in the lake and put them on wander and aggressive mode. If anyone or anything goes into the lake, they'll be dead in seconds. Also if I happen to be getting raided while online, I pick the raiders up with my bird and drop them into the shark infested lake. :)
Max their melee damage!
These terrors of the ocean may seem a very strong and a late-game tame, but my first megalodon was tamed when I was less than level 20, all I did was go into the water and lure it to a place shallow enough then knocked it with a club, took very long to knock out but it was worth that time.
These are easy to tame I tamed 3 in one day
Megalodon prefer raw meat than raw fish meat, so don't try to kill water dinos to tame your megalodon. In low level, they have low weight, but if you increase its weight, it will be perfect. Megalodon always spawn near red obelisk, so go to the ocean and you will find a lot of megalodon. Remember: If you don't tranquilizater darts, use a crossbow and shoot tranq!
I tamed mine by making it come to the shallows and getting it stuck by swimming in circles and using a club, you can get it early by doing this. I used a new club and when I was done it was at quarter health.
I tamed this with a ramshackle slingshot when I was level 15 like not hard to tame btw I was on herbivore island and I tamed 3 easy tame especially on mobile.
Make sure there are no other megalodon near by when knocking them out, it makes them take so much less torpor from each shot for mate boost and pack bonus. I had to figure this out the hard way
You can unlock their saddle relatively early in the game.
