How to tame these good pups.
Step 1: get an argy or pt (or if you’re close to their spawn locations you don’t need)
Step 2: I’d recommend to get atleast 3 for the pack boost possibly mate boost.
Step 3: locate a pack
Step 4: stay away from alpha and pet the one you want to tame
Step 5: try to not make them mad or scared
Step 6: follow the one you picked around and pet until tamed
Step 7: repeat until you have enough pups
Thank you for reading I’m sorry if it didn’t work this is just how I tame them!<3
Alright, so I failed at this over and over again, and here’s what I learned so you’re not like me.
Don’t try to trap in rails or low walls, you’ll need something at least three high to not worry about them waltzing over.
Don’t get in front of them, they’ll bounce, and if they bounce, don’t chase them, if they run once all the progress depletes rapidly.
Use cactus soup or whatever it’s called, not bug spray (obviously).
If you get one trapped randomly in a rock, do not move when you pet it at all, and try to pet it when it’s looking away from you, it’ll be a lot safer.
Don’t try to tame the alpha, and don’t try to tame one near the alpha.
Once you attempt to tame one, and they end up running (at least for me), you cannot tame again 85% of the time, they just book it when you pet them.
If you’re not trapping, stay directly behind, and pray it doesn’t suddenly turn around.
Hope this helps someone, everyone deserves a dog.
Step 1: use a flyer to grab it and drop it into a taming pen
Step 2: wear ghillie armour and pet it
Step 3: you now have a good doggo
This is a little expensive but, I tamed one in a box by tranqin it when it woke it was calm and I was able to follow it around the box and pet it. Hope this helps
You cannot find these guys sadly on mobile.
Normally you can't tame the pack leader, so just get a pteranodon or argy, pick it up and drop it in a large area (like a separate section of your base). When you take it away from the rest of the pack, it removes its 'pack leader' title, allowing you to tame the highest level hyena of that pack.
If you want to find a good cheap taming pen go whatch phlinger phoo 👍
Despite it's appearance, the real life hyaenodon was nowhere near related to actual hyenas, but it actually belongs to a group of prehistoric mammals, all extinct, that are believed to be most closely related to pangolins, which aren't related to anteaters or armadillos, for your information.
Its real easy but time consuming just knock one down and build a two by two wall around it then u can easily tame it when it wakes up (you have to be crouching while approaching near it)
Basically follow them around and when there parents aren't looking pet them
