Fun fact: megalosaurus (name translates to “big lizard”) was the first true dinosaur found. Discovered by Richard Owen, he thought it was quadrupedal (walked on all fours) and resembled a crocodile-lion cross. Later he would correct his data and soon classify this group of extinct line of ancient lizards as “Dinosaurs”.

People say that is easy taming on day rather than night, but thats not truth because they always wake up, no matter how much torpor they have at 20:30 in game, that will cause you to lose all your taming process, I always tame these guys by starving them 2 times and then the 3rd knockout I put the food on its inventory, thanks for reading

If you play abberation tame on. Due to it always being half day, half night it gains it's night buff all the time. This making it sooo much better than it usually is.

Quetzal’s can’t pick up a Megalo but can pick up a Mammoth??

Great for aberration since they don't take radiation damage

I tamed one. It just sleeps all the time

If u don’t let them sleep then their torpor will increase and will fall unconscious hope you found this helpful

You should probably run if you step on them. Especially when you jump on the “rock”

Don't put kibble on until it's fully starved! It will wake up when it transitions to night (20:30) and you'll lose your kibble.

The megalosaurus is one of the strongest therapods, but its nocturnal sleeping pattern make it significantly less effective during the day. The megalosaurus can bite and even latch onto enemies — including humans — and swing them around, hindering their ability to move. This carnivore is stronger than a Carno or a Rex at night, but during the day, it is much more slow and sluggish.

What does a Megalosaurus eat? In ARK: Survival Evolved, the Megalosaurus eats Superior Kibble, Oviraptor Kibble, Raw Mutton, Raw Prime Meat, Cooked Lamb Chop, Cooked Prime Meat, Raw Prime Fish Meat, Raw Meat, Cooked Prime Fish Meat, Cooked Meat, Raw Fish Meat, and Cooked Fish Meat.

Translations: Megalosaurio, Megalosaure, Megalosauro, メガロサウルス, 메갈로사우르스, Мегалозавр, 斑龙.
