Build a 2x2 stone trap with single doorframes surrounding it with ramps/stairs coming down from the top of it, lure it into the trap (use a slingshot to lure it), knock it out (preferably with tranq or anything higher in the engram), if health is too low, kill anything nearby and drag the dead body to the bear to get it’s health back up.
Make sure to prepare your 100+ narcotics and honey pot, mutton (if on Aberration kill all those Ovis mwahahah) or prime meat before and during taming (if you do not have any, use regular meat it’ll just take longer), remember the higher the level the longer and more resources it takes to tame it.
Meanwhile kill every carnivorous creatures around it to ensure its safety. (I usually make cryopod so I don’t have to destroy the structure once it is tamed to cryo the bear to reuse the trap)
Now you have a medium sized tank tamed to get honey or to assist in taming giant queen bees, hope this helps for those who are new at taming, happy taming everyone! \(^o^)/

More Dire Bear Taming & KO Tips
BEAR trap does not work on him
USE DARTS, arrows will usually kill it before it knocks out
If you guys are wanting to have a really strong tank of a Dino, then definitely get a direbear. I have a level 67 bear and she is an absolute unit!!! She has 2,064 hp and she has over 300% melee damage, and she is my beloved baby. I have found a max level male bear in the redwoods and he’s beautiful; black on top and white on bottom. I am really wanting to breed them…but I’m worried about what things it’ll need though. So I gotta hope and pray that it doesn’t want something crazy. Wish me the best of luck everyone!!!
These things are absolute beasts, they do insane damage, grind like a boss, and gain momentum while sprinting, to tame these, get a mount which allows rider weaponry and invest decent amount of health in it. Then let it aggro on you and start tranquilizing them ( rifle advised since x-bow may kill it ).
Its torpor run isn't that annoying so just knock it, feed it, then wreck the island's almost every bit( gigas and titans are exceptions ). Up if this helped.
Get on a rock or die
To make honey last practically forever, make a fishing rod and equip honey, that is about to spoil, to the fishing rod, then un-equip it. It should refresh the spoil timer. Does not work with leech blood. Tested on PS4.

Yeah I thought this was a passive team like you have to crawl up to it and give it a treat but no I got eaten instantly 😭🥀 came here to find out what happened
Hey hey booboo, I got me a picnic basket - if you know this everyone loves you
Direbear have little health compared to torpor. Keep a few tamed dodos at your ramp trap. When you've shot the bear enough for it to be bloody, throw in a dodo. It will instantly kill and eat it and start regenerating health. Give it a moment or two and continue darting. Happy hunting!
These guys can run up to really fast speeds when agro. When tamed they are AMAZING berrie and fibre collectors. Really powerful, a low level bear could easily take on a low level Rex.
