Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a deinosuchus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a deinosuchus.
I highly recommend wearing a ghille suit .Also I think it's better to clear the area of all possible threats and creatures for it to agro to.
ONLY USE SUPERIOR KIBBLE!!! I tried using cooked mutton on a lvl 110 and got 0.4% per mutton during a 2x event. Used superior kibble and got about 17% per kibble on the same deinonychus. Can’t recommend any other food after that experience!
Tip for taming: Y'know how you have to run up to the deinosuchus to feed it? We'll, first of all you don't need ghillie for that, just be quick - in and out. But the real tip: When a deinosuchus opens it's mouth, only go to feed it when the mouth is static. If it's head is shaking and vibrating, it's a giga bite.
So if you are trying to tame this guy and are tired of your gilly brecking get some good flack and feed and run away have it fight some other things and then go back and repeat
Standard traps don’t work. It has to be able to move around in order for the food to drain and to be able to be fed again.
You can find Deinosuchus primarily in the swamp biome. Here’s the best way to tame one:
1. Find a high level one
2. Pick a spot near them use as your taming grounds
3. Clear out the trees and all creatures (they will distract the deino between feedings)
4. Grab the deino’s aggro with your flyer and lead it to the cleared space, then fly straight up
5. Collect prime meat from nearby animals (they spoil faster in your inventory than your flyer’s
6. Wait for the deino to stop, sit down, and open its mouth with a hissing sound
7. Then land your flyer (leave it in passive mode), approach the deino’s mouth from the side and feed it the prime meat (do not touch it!)
8. Quickly run back to your flyer and go up the avoid being bitten
9. Repeat steps 5 - 8 until tamed
P.S. Accidentally attacking or aggroing the deino won’t lower taming efficiency
Just tried to tame a level 24 on the island but it says you need to be at least level 70 to feed it. Such a shame, I couldn't see any other tips saying this, not sure if it's the case for everyone, I play on Xbox if that helps
This might be the only creature worth actually crafting kibble for (superior is needed). The process is super tedious, and even with full ghilly armor they’ll often notice you, so the kibble can sometimes let you do it in one go.
You can tame this guy with a net gun no I'm not joking I've done it
Easiest way to make it tamed:
Tell it your a dentist then put food in its mouth
To tame it, you have to feed meat to it!
