Shoot it in the face whilst going backwards there to slow to reach you when it runs away go in front of it and carry on shooting it in the face with tranqs.

1. Get tranq arrows and a crossbow

2. Find an anky of your desire

3. Shoot it in the head while walking backwards (they're slow so you can just walk while shooting)

4. When it runs away chase after it and shoot it

5. It'll be knocked out.

6. Feed it recommend food and any narcos if needed.

7. Congratulations!

They get about 3x more metal than you! And depending on the level they can easily kill Raptors and other small predators.

They're found almost everywhere

Beaches, highlands, chalk hills, green forest, I've even see some near desert.

If you're breeding Ankys 100 berrys last 19:32

So you got enough time for a poo

Ankylosaurus-

Ah yes… while lookin like a endgame creature! It is infact a starter creature! It’s strong but slow. With also a large health pool. I think slowness is worth it! But you can pair them with many creatures like argentavis!

Taming Food-

I recommend using Mejoberries if you are just starting playing on the map. I recommend if you can do regular kibble!

Taming-

Slingshots possible! But not recommended! Use tranq darts or arrows! But use darts if it’s high level! Do not use darts on low levels!

Pump melee granted your going to encumber faster but the metal you get out of a rock is higher

How to tame a anky!! :O

This Guide applies to The Island only.

First of all, let’s talk about the utilities of a Anky. They are amazing metal gatherers! It also has a weight reduction to metal. So any time you run out of metal, (which for me i run out of metal all the time) use an anky!

Now here is what you need to tame one:

- 10-20 Tranq arrows and a bow/crossbow (varies on the level)

-Berries and/or kibble

A couple notes about taming:

You won’t need any bolas, but if you want you could bring a big bear trap. Even though it’s unnecessary.

Also It’s torpor drops really slowly. So narcotics aren’t usually needed.

Now you maybe be wondering, where do I find this dude? One spot is on herbivore island. It’s way on the right side of the island. On your map it sticks out in the ocean. Another place is the Red Woods. And only go there if you are DESPERATE. It is near the area where the swamps and red woods meet. There are tons of other spots and you can find them on YouTube

Now how do you tame a anky?

Well once you have gathered all of your items you will need need to find your anky, shoot it and walk backward while shooting your tranqs. It won’t take very many tranqs, depending on the level. But then its knocked out! Now feed the berries or kibble of your choice and boom! You have a anky!!

My name is Etheral and my last tip was on the Carno!

Don't let your stupid tribe mates touch these. Ive blown through seven in a week.

If you think the mountains are too dangerous

Just go to the Herbivour Island

Its the small island in the south east of the map

Guide on Ankylosaurs (only for the island):

So, you are among the many survivors that seek to tame the herbivorous dinosaur Ankylosaurus (I’m calling it anky). Because this would probably be a major turning point in your survival experience, you should probably prepare.

First off, the anky is found in the many mountainous terrain in the island. There, it coexists with many dangerous carnivores like the Trex, raptor, and allosaurus. The anky defends itself with its club tail, using it to deal a deadly blow. But, the anky can also be found in the peaceful HERBIVORE ISLAND, which is an islet at the Southeast Tip of the island. There, ankys are abundant and there are no carnivores.

To tame the anky, check the area around it and clear any unwanted animals. You don’t want a Rex to get a double dish! The anky is very slow. Just walk backwards and shoot it with TRANQUILIZING AMMO which can be unlocked at lvl 21 (tranq arrows).

The anky has many uses:

Carries tons of metal. Also harvests a lot with its tail.

Defends base.

Is a cool Dino!!!

Next tip on Rex

For a low lvl player a lvl 1-45 is good enough to get you going but when you get the kibble a lvl 116-120/150 should be your main goal. High damage means more metal per hit & weight is your 2nd most useful stat to carry more. P.s taming a lvl 145 ankly now ;)
