The Equus is a horse-like creature that can be mounted with special saddles. While mounted, survivors can use whips and lassos.

2- Find a Scorpion in Southern Cave
3- Gather Raw Carrots
4-Mount Scorpion if Tamed

6- feed until tame
For all you noobs out there who want a horse with broken torpor the more you put into damage the more torpor you deal per hit.
These guys spawn in plains which are near the swamp
To the person asking about the carrots on the island you have to gather seeds from the same plants you get berries and then plant them in a large crop plot. Be sure to water and fertilize!
This thing is GOATED!
- Fast
- good stam
- avg health
- decent torpor tolerance
- mort&pest saddle (for on the go narcs)
- torpor attack (for on the go knockouts)
- can jump
- weight reduction on stone and such
Only downside is health
It eats troodon kibble or rockcarrot then ride every time it is going to stop and do its animation you press 0 or right on the d pad and have rockcarrot or troodon kibble there then u have your equs. ;)
These things are honestly the best taming creature. Put alot of levels into DMG and theyre knock-out torpidity increases alot. Its not the fastest method, but its the cheapest. I have knocked out 80% of my tames with a lvl288 equus, fast and easy, and super cheap!
Run run run, crouch when close still approaching at an angle, when close enough,(stack of carrots in zero slot) click three “e” three times; one to feed, one to mount, one to start THE RIDE! Each time you get the feed prompt, hit “e” and pray it gets stuck in a corner…
Run run run, crouch when close still approaching at an angle, when close enough,(stack of carrots in zero slot) click three “e” three times; one to feed, one to mount, one to start THE RIDE! Each time you get the feed prompt, hit “e” and pray it gets stuck in a corner and doesn’t run off a cliff, or into carnivores. Ignore everything but the prompt, hitting “e” without hesitation. (You cannot control the run at all). That’s it.
Quick tip: don’t knock them out. That’s not how you tame them
Grasslands is where they spawn. I never really wanted one, but I was looking around and I seen a white equus. Spy glassed it, popped up UNICORN. Immediately tamed😂
Found the Unicorn by Green on the Island. It will be all white and look like a sheep from a distance. In general, they seem to appear in groups of two or more. Move to a safe area or have an escort to clear the area of danger when taming!
This is a lot easier to tame than I thought it was! Step 1: with a dino that’s good at gathering berries, get some rock carrot seeds
(I suggest a Bigfoot or stego) step 2: plant and grow carrots (carrots work best but mejo berries will work as well) Step 3: sneak up to a…

(I suggest a Bigfoot or stego) step 2: plant and grow carrots (carrots work best but mejo berries will work as well) Step 3: sneak up to a horse and feed it with a carrot (or mejo berry) in the last slot of your hot bar. Step 4: Immediately mount it and repeat until tamed.
Thank you for reading! Hope it helps you fellow horse lovers!
For the guy who could not keep the equus in the trap, first of all, do NOT use thatch or wood. Use stone or better for the trap. Second, make sure that you put it in the trap correctly or make the trap bigger. Then make sure that it is NOT ON AGRO!!! P.s. most people are lying…

THEY ARE NOT... THEY ARE PASSIVE! Y.w. ( your welcome)
Do not go near raptors on this thing
Pick them up with an argy and drop them in a taming pen this will make it easier. On playstation for ASA press triangle when they start bucking to feed again. If they are not bucking pressing triangle will just dismount you.
Great tame if you pump health and melee you can knock out barys carnos and theris easy pump weight and you have mortar and pestle with unlimited space honestly just great tames can't recommend enough
Don't listen to the taming numbers. Bring twice the amount.
If you play without flying, this thing is a must have. Decent weight, almost no stamina consumption while sprinting, reduced fall damage and imprinted ones are really fast. The Buck Kick (L2 on PS4) is really good forknocking out creatures. And don't forget that this…

The Buck Kick (L2 on PS4) is really good forknocking out creatures. And don't forget that this things saddle is a mortar and pestle, so you can grind those sweet narcotic XP while traveling. This is my go to mount.
You might want to take some anti-nausea medicine before trying to tame this thing because it just runs in circles (for me at least, and on mobile). A lvl50 took like an hour of running in circles. It was very painful.
But sorta worth it because it’s a mobile…

But sorta worth it because it’s a mobile mortar&pestle and now I can lasso people.
Find them in grasslands, just south of the snow biome.
