Honestly, these things seem content to attack anything and everything. I just tamed one without it landing a single hit on me, and I was standing STILL. (...on the back of my Rex so I had a height advantage to my tranq dart range. And protection just in case.) All I did was stand there firing my darts. She came towards me, but then got distracted to kill a Dilo. By the time she'd snaked her way round to me, she was so high on torpor that she turned and started to flee, not before I stuck a couple more in her and finished the job, though.
