Get it with an argentavis, and throw it into a taming pen, than knock it out. Never fight it in the water, it will stun u, and it swims faster than u. It only eats fish meat. If it kills a fish it also gets it into its inventory instantly.
Baryonyx
The Baryonyx is a large crocodile-like predator. While it might lack in attack power, its ability to swim extremtly fast makes it a fierce opponent — especially with its ability to travel on both land and in water.

My happiness was short-lived.
They can get out of the cage, atleast without a special angle that i did not discover or prove existence.

Sorry for the hopes
You can cage these, just like a Sarco.

This guy is great for early-ish game. He doesnt take to much trancs and he's super strong. His torpidity is kiterally amazing and hes saved me countless times. Hes super fast and has good stamina and good against other water/swamp creatures. He can also stun enemies underwater
I've just tamed one, LV 30, with just a club (yes, I died a countless times 😅😅),but it was next my base, and I am lv5, what should I do ?
Ps where is my médaille 😅😅😅
Can't use normal bola anymore I learned the hard way.
They should be friend with spino am I right?
Use a bola then stand behind it with a club bow and arrow etc, they only eat fish meat so make sure u are near a body of water to get the meat.
You can pick these up with argys on mobile
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.
For everyone saying why does it attack me if it eats fish? Well I have the answer: in it’s official entry it’s aggression is listed as passive to land creatures, but aggressive to water-dwellers so it attacks you when you go in water so don’t go in or near water and it…

If a allo, spino, and raptor all had a baby this is what that monstrosity would be.
DO NOT FORGET these guys stun you AND your mount in the water, I made that mistake crossing river with my carno, I was dismounted but made it to shore. Once my Carno lost its stun it made quick work of the Baryonyx 😜
Can be feed raw meat just has to be fed manually not automatically.
This and the thylacoleo are the two best caving creatures so you shouldn't overlook it. Just tame it, but get a high level
Man bro when i first met this guy beside my lake i thought it was a spino so i run but when i damage it it only had 400 health so i killed it and found another one so i decided to tame it

These guys literally annoy me, I was on my raptor with my otter when suddenly a baryonyx appeared out of thin air! He knocked me of my raptor and started chomping away on it next thing you know my raptor is nearly dead and we are running away. But guess what, a purlovia came…

Well let's just say my raptor didn't survive but I somehow got away ;-; my otter was kinda injured cuz I accidently threw it of when I panicked. RIP unnamed raptor
probably best dino for caves (most) also he has decent
Taming in the redwood river you will need:
10 narcotics
A crossbow with 10 tranq arrows
A bola
A crude ton of fish
