To tame a Dimorphodon, separate it from its flock, wait for it to land, immobilize it with a bola, and carefully knock it unconscious before feeding it meat. Monitor its rapidly falling torpor and use narcotics or biotoxin to keep it unconscious. As a shoulder companion, it warns of threats, defends its carrier, reduces carried weight, helps preserve food, and can swarm enemies or harass riders when grouped. Avoid engaging flocks, since they can overwhelm survivors and target riders directly; use ranged attacks, a durable mount, or retreat to a protected area if swarmed.
