When your growing up theses guys they must eat fish meat when they reach adolescence! They will start to starve if they don't get it!! Up bote so people can see!!

This dinosaur is a very intricate but interesting dinosaur to get. I did find it near the shore line as it had seen me and wanted to eat me. However I had 5 tranq arrows which you can get at lvl 21. I shot all 5 and he fell to the ground. Very good dinosaur to tame especially in the water. It beats anything in the water even with its stun strike. I recommend using this dino to fight. I have one named Juju. One like equals One love for Juju

Okay, so this thing eats any fish meat... then why does it eat me?

They do a lot of damage but only eat fish "that's a bad thing"

Spino + Raptor = Baryonyx. faster than the raptor on land and faster than the spino in water... cool dinosaur

When I was a noobie in Ark I saw this guy. Like the therizinosaur incident with me thinking this guy is passive I walked up to him while he was busy dealing three raptors. He slew the raptors easily then he drew his attention to me. I was like “Hello there” and he was like “Omae wa, mou shindeiru.” He stunned and easily killed me. Lesson learned. Don’t ever, ever go near creatures dealing with other hostiles. You might save your character by doing this.

Really good for exploring caves. Just NOT lava cave!! RIP Leafclaw😔😢

Make sure to pump up your movement speed if you don’t bola this bad boy. He will catch you if you have a noob speed lol.

This Creature is amazing and when ever it kills something it harvests the body immediately. I recommend taming this.

To the person who said why does it eat me (All types of fish meat dude)
We are secretly fish

Do not underestimate the usefulness of these guys, I had I baryonyx that was a low level and he still was able of taking on most creatures and was such a good travel mount

Dont fight it in the water unless you enjoy being stun locked and drowning to death.

My baby girl the red baroness gets me EVERYWHERE in the water she can deal with megalodons and mantas really easily in conclusion baryonyx are AMAZING travel mounts. Thanks for taking time to read this

Sincerely a random Dododex user

I found a level ten I shot with 4 tranq arrows,I thought it was my lucky day...than his level 140
Girlfriend came at me like and avalanche..
.I died

I tamed mine by freezing it with a snow owl and then putting Gates around it after that just knock it out find another one and breed for a mutation

On official do yourself a favor and kibble tame this guy if you use raw fish meat he will lose almost all of his taming effectiveness

NEVER and I mean NEVER FIGHT IN WATER. They will stun and all you can do is wait as you see this thing kill your lv 132 triceratops. That has killed rexs. Rip Trixie the triceratops Jan 2020- Mar 2020.

They don’t eat RAW MEAT they only eat fish

1. Craft 10 bolas (just in case)
2. Make sure you have at least 40 fish
3. Have 2 clubs or 40 tranq arrows
4. Bola the creature
5. Knock it out
6. This only works for lvls 1-10

I would argue that this dinosaur is the strongest mount that can fight on both land and in the water. I had one that was bred multiple generations, full imprint, purple saddle. I named him Fury to represent all of the anguish I experienced leading up to his creation. He was able to handle anything I threw at him with ease. People were surprised to hear that I was easily able to kill both squids and alpha carnos with him. Never got to attempt an alpha Rex. He met his match when I attempted an alpha squid. RIP Fury.
