Tips & Strategies
To tame a dire wolf the fastest and easiest way possible, you will want to have an Argentavis (preferably one with high stamina.) You then want to go to the edges of the North zone, so you don't freeze to death, and then find a dire wolf of the level you want. You then want to pick your chosen dire wolf up and carry it back to your base or an area suitable for knocking it out and taming it.

So I killed a wolf from the strong cave and it was lvl 885 but when I tamed it, it only went till 1000 now I know the lvl cap
Someone put like 50 wolves on PC right in front of my base and set all of them on wander and aggressive. They were all around level 200-350 and one wolf does 50 damage, and has 2k hp. Lord help me.
Best way to tame is to build a trap.
Step1: place nine foundations in a square.
Step2: place walls on the corners, and place doorways in between the walls, don’t put doors in the doorways.
Step3: place ramps on all the walls and doors leading up to the cage.
Step4:find a pack of direwolfs.
Step5:agro them then run toward your trap.
Step6:run into the trap then out the doorway.
Since direwolfs can only go through double doorways they will be stuck in the box and you can shoot them with tranqs.
P.S use wood cause they can’t damage it.

I tryed to trap one but the whole pack followed me in so now I have 6
Let’s say you want to tame a high-level DireWolf and you find yourself next to a pack, but you forgot your trusty spyglass. The best way to figure out which wolf has the highest level is to get close enough to where they howl but not so close that they can attack.(Remember, they come in packs and have high melee damage), once they howl, the highest-level wolf will emit a red-yellow aura, which usually means they have the highest level and are the alpha.
Hopefully this helped, have a good day/night!
Dam, managed to find me, you win nothing!
Did you know that the lvl 390s in the ice cave are tamable you make them agro bring to entrance we’re they can’t fit and tranq but make sure they don’t tame above max tamed lvl 450 good luck it takes 3 hours and 50 minutes to tame on 1x and 500 narcotics. When tamed you can breed super over powered wolves hope this is helpful and hope you read this it’s useful

On mobile, you can get a super-high-level direwolf from the hard snow cave.
1 *Kill a direwolf*
Enter the cave and get a pack of wolves following you. Then retreat to the first room of the cave with the water pool in the middle and run around it. If you are fast enough, The wolves will try to run straight at you and fall into the water. There you can easily shoot them.
2 *Revive the wolf*
... at an obelisk or at a resurrection platform. This costs amber, on hard mode a lvl 590 wolf costs 32 amber.
3 *Tame the wolf*
You really dont need fancy buildings for this. Just revive it, run a bit away, then bola the wolf. You will only need one bola if you shoot it with the blue shock arrows on a Compound Bow (again, these you will find at the snow cave from tributing the artifact).
4 Enjoy having a super strong wolf. In the cave, they spawn at almost double level (so if your normal max level is 300, you will find 590 ones) and when tamed they gain even more levels. If you tame a 590 lvl wolf with calming balm he will need two prime meat and get 294 additional levels FOR FREE.
Make sure when picking it up that you make sure it’s face is facing the opposite way of you so it can’t bite :D press dat ^ arrow!
To the guy who advises people to tame lvl 590 direwolfs on the "level 300 mode" to "get 294 additional levels FOR FREE", yeah good luck having a lvl 600 direwolf that cant be leveled, or have offspring that have a leveling advantage, since the max level on mobile is literally 600. literally more practical to find a level 400 direwolf or lower, and then punch the direwolf to lower its taming effectiveness to get the direwolf to level 550 or lower and an opportunity to level up at least 50 levels before reaching max level
bros the type of guy to think that if you revive a lvl 750 direwolf on brutal mode you can tame it and get a lvl 1000 direwolf (literally turns into a lvl 1 direwolf when revived)
so yeah moral of this tip is to test your stuff before posting it in public
How to tame:
You will need:
Tranq arrows or darts doesn’t matter what (or a boomerang) may kill it though Also just a tip tranq arrows from a crossbow may kill it if a low lvl. BOLAS WORK ON THEM SO THAT IS THE BEST WAY
1. Bola (ofc)
2.knock it out
3. MEAT prime- or just normal doesn’t matter really just any meat :)
4. Enjoy no saddle needed like if this helped
