Make sure you don't have any additional dinos mods they mess with the spawing

Use a snow owl to locate them and the eggs with the heat vision to find the eggs in the nest and u can use the freeze ability to stop them from eating your bird

This is a cricket on crack you even look at their eggs and that is the last time you spawn over their

To get one of these one the Nintendo Switch version, you will need to go to Genesis 2 and use commands to spawn the Gauntlet Mission variant (check Ark.wiki.gg Deinonychus page for the command) and use ForceTame on it. You will not be able to ride it even with a saddle, but you can use the command GetEgg while looking at it to acquire a fertilized normal deinonychus egg that you can hatch and use like a normal tame.

To "tame" a Deinonychus, you have 2 options.

Option 1. You will need strong creature, and nests. After you will find the nest you have To jumper off your creature, get egg and kill every deino, that will try To attack you. After getting every egg you could find, use Egg Incubator, or 5-7 air conditioners To hatch them (the like 90°C To start hatching).

Option 2. You will need fast creature, like a Pt, wyvern or griffin, and nests. You have To find nests, ten land near one, grab the egg, and run away. Better fly near the ground, over the Cliff, because deinos are stupid, and they will fellow you, no matter what.

Fly over them and lure them away. Sacrifice a dodo or something for them to attack, grab the eggs and fly away on Pteranodon or other flyer.

Basically if a raptor and a microraptor had a kid. Love these things.

I say their great hunting tools for large animals.For example:a rex you can just latch on to it and do damage then you have some hide,raw prime meat and raw meat(P.S anything large it can latch onto examples: Diplo,bronto titanasaur giga.Nonexamples:raptor dodo oviraptor micro raptor otter)

When you see a wild when your less than level 25, freaking run, or , you dead.Yell merde if it chases you.

Ok internal base defense dinos,but would recommend a few pegos or troodons more. Still good tho

There’s this bug with creatures that can jump up walls (the ferox and deinonychus) where if a yuty fear roars you and you jump onto a wall and latch, your camera angle will be super weird and sideways. The only way I know of to fix this is logging out/restarting your game. Or just don’t jump onto stuff if you’re fear roared.

Saddle is not on primitive plus

Saw a tip saying that you’re not hit by the Dino that you latch onto. That’s not true, they can still hit you

Used one in the Poison cave on Valguero and it’s pretty good at gathering leech blood. Not as much leech blood as a Sabercat but it deals with the other stuff in there A LOT better. I named mine Foghorn Leghorn for anyone who gets the reference.

Can barely climb do not tame for climbing.

Multiplayer: get 1 friend to at least have 145-130-115% movement speed, have them aggro the deinonychus'(?) and nab an egg, or, later on, in the swamp there are carcasses that give polymer, collect some with the ghillie engrams ready, And use that with the first idea for extra safety

They are most effective if you teme at least 3, or breed 3.

Charge in on a Triceratops with 2-3 more Tri-puppies and wipe them all out before heading to the nests. The Tri-puppers will tank the damage and and you steal the eggs!

Once you have an egg or eggs place them in a incubator at 85 degrees. Make sure to have raw meat on hand for when they hatch. Make groups of 12 pieces of meat. Then feed them (transfer) the 12 pk of meat into their inventory. Don't leave until their eating slows down some. Keep the meat replenished or they will die with a quickness.

Lure them away on something fast or a flier to something random and get out of agro range
