Found in desert biome in extinction dlc, in south east corner of map
Itโs deadly accurate so donโt count on it missing
People havenโt emphasized this enough, but these things do a LOT of damage in the wild too so you need to be really careful while trying to tame them. Specifically the R variant, which I have been taming on Fjordur can just shred through your tames and you. They can also shoot you while your on a mount.
When near a Velonasaur it will shoot spikes out of itโs head. If you are on a flyer such as a Pteranodon it will make it dizzy and you will fly out of control.
How to escape a Velonasaur:
1) run
2) run faster
3) run a lot faster
4) RUN LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT BECAUSE IT DOES ALL THE TIME
Never underestimate these bastards, I was trying to tame one of them and THEIR NEEDLES HAVE RANGE! I was on the other side of the lake in the desert biome and I was getting aim boted by thier needles. MAKE SURE TO HAVE SOME MED BREWS IF U TRY TO TAME ONE!

In my experience, they almost always spawn in pairs. Make sure you check the entire area if you think you're only fighting/taming one!
level damage up to 650%+ and killed someone's Giga with the AOE ability, I thought I was done for
If you going to try kill it don't approach it with a shield it will rip through it and kill you
