Tamed 2 ( lvl 125 and lvl 90 ) did some upgrading mostly to health and melee. Turned my back to cook some meat. Hear scary music, see lvl 130 Rex's corps just flying over my head.

Do not knock out. Crouch and feed, continue to do this using mejoberries. Specifically mejoberries and I also got this tip by a dude here. Mine got killed even I didn’t fully tame and fought a alpha

It literally only took me an hour to tame a level 145 with only 50 mejoberries.

1. Gather berries and put the berries in your last slot
2. Kneel down and walk up to one of them and feed it the berries
3. Now you just follow it around while kneeling down and feeding it berries whenever it's hungry
4. Congratulations you tamed one.


Since they're commonly found in the red wood forest, I recommend only taming one if you're close to water as if you get attacked by something you can jump into the water to get away. Then when you think it's safe just go find your monkey and go back to following/feeding it.

Feed it a berry. Then wait like 5-7 minutes and then you can spam feed it a few times. Rinse and repeat. This way you don’t need to follow its butt around for an hour
