The best way to get metal is tame a few of these guys, then get in a tribe if you dont already have one. Then ask your tribe members to grind with you and you'll get loads of metal! I tested this out too. And make sure you alternate between weight and strength to get the most.
To knock it out, walk backwards with a sling shot, and gen newbies can do this! Make sure to have about 30 rocks.
Using tranq arrows with a crossbow is fairly effective running then turning back shooting then running again is fairly easy or making a trap and attacking then lure it to trap
