Up if you think that these guys should be in mobile and you feed in raw prime fish meat

Use an itchthyornis to gather fish for it. The buff increases efficiency.

They deal hundred millions of damages to fish... but only does 1 damage to other creatures

ok

The most frustrating thing about taming these guys is not only do they take a lot of fish but the same button to feed them is the same button to drop the fish(i don’t know if it’s different in pc or ps4)and it’s constantly swinging around your face making it annoying because you’re constantly dropping it. Either make it so the controls to feed them are different then dropping it or make ur so it’s not constantly in ur face.

Tame to this kill fish and drag there body to it and once tamed if you feed them more dead fish corpses it will build up and lay a golden egg which is used as a buff to certain dinos or oil or a player buff

Feeding them sabertooth salmon seems to work the best.

Here's how I tamed one using Ichthyornis. 👇

What I did was use my Ichthyornis to Hunt fishes and bring the dead bodies for me.

Change his settings to "Hunt and retrieve", put him on your shoulder then you go swim. While you are swimming aim at The fish you want and double tap F (on PC). Ichthyornis will fly, kill the fish and bring the body to you.

Then you take the body to Hesperornis and feed it. Once you get used to it it's very fast and easy. I recommend following Hesp from behind so you dont need to adjust your aim all the time.

You can do the same to tame Otters.

God alive they don't want much do they

Tried to tame one earlier (you gotta drag them fish. Don even do their own hunting like! Lazy birds) kept dropping the fish trying to feed them taming bar ended up going down when I was on 25.7% I gave up beestrd birds

Aka pelicans on alcohol pls up

Tried to tame him but I kept dropping the fish instead of feeding him. Between that and him pecking me I got angry, and decided he should taste my sword instead. Sorry dude.

Taming an ichthyornis will allow you to gather the corpse by setting it on hunt and retrieve, after the fish is killed it will deliver the corpse right to you and you can tame the Hesperornis

For those who have problem feeding a hesperornis, due to the fact that the feed button, is the same as the drop. Do not press E, Instead hold E then Click Feed Fish.

BIGGEST PAIN TO TAME EVER! have to get sabertooth fish kill them BUT do NOT harvest them you have to drag the body to it and feed it. Also good luck feeding it while the body is flailing everywhere in front of you. Also you CAN breed them.

Could just be a coincidence but I had a MUCH easier time feeding this guy fish while he was swimming in the water than on land. It took a lot of back and forth but he wasn’t constantly pecking me in the face and the dead fish body wasn’t jumping in the way so that feed fish/release body wasn’t interchanging every time. I could barely approach these dudes on land because everything was working against me. I have two parasaur tames stationed parallel the water crossings with their turrets enabled so they can warn me if something nasty heads my way while I’m distracted underwater. Hopefully this helps others out!

Most exhaustIng passive team ever!

Use a horse to lasso it, then you can move it around to new fish spawns when the area gets cleared. The horse can also step on the duck to pin it down, or simply use the lasso to keep it close while tribemates gather fish.

I've tamed giga's rex's and more,yet this was the most frustrating thing i've ever tamed a level three took half an hour and twenty fish on 3x taming never again...never...

(Sorry for any grammatical errors but I’m using a translator to write this tip) the best way to tame a hesperornis is to:

- Look for one of the lowest possible level (in case you want to waste less time and less resources);

- Have the hesperornis follow you and send him into a trap made of wood or straw, formed by a foundation, 3 fances (and another one to close the cage) and a wooden ramp (to allow him to climb in);

- In case there are more hesperornis, with the same type of trap catch one of the opposite sex next to the other one already trapped (so as to have the mating bonus);

- With an ichtyornis take some fish, preferably large salmons but do not harvest the fish by the ichtyornis;

- Enter the trap with one fish and gently give it to the hesperornis (but be careful not to drop it because otherwise it will devour it and give you no taming percentage);

Repeat the steps with the ichthyornis and feed more fish to the hesperornis until it’s tame (and all this in a few minutes). I hope this tip can help someone and, in case it is useful

Can't be picked up by anything while they are wild. They do aggro on you, and can walk through door frames, so you can kite them to a taming pen then use an itchy to bring those succulent salmon to you. Tamed a 140 last night in about 20 minutes.

One of the worst things you need to tame for kibble, but this is how to do it:

1. Craft a wooden cage

2. Aggro it onto land

3. Place cage on top of it

4. Spend an hour killing fish and dragging them to it, feeding it through the bars carefully or you’ll open the cage and let it out.

5. You let it out, didn’t you? Pick the cage up and trap it again.

6. Watch out for that ichth- It stoke your fish... and half the stuff in your inventory. Kill it.

7. Cuss in frustration at every piranha on the Ark trying to eat you, then feed them to it too.

8. Finally finish taming the dumb bird - now just remember to keep feeding it fish forever.

Oh and watch out for Argentavis in the area, they like corpses and they don’t like you even if you’re carrying the corpse. They’ll steal your fish and then try to kill you.

Put it in a taming box these birds are an easy kill for predators
