Tips & Strategies
So I've been trying to tame one all morning, and I've come across this knowledge. Any type of armour is sufficient, I use chitin bc It's what I keep on me at all times. Use a Ptera, grab the Alpha, and fly it far from the pack. Set it down in an area that's open and scarce of other dino's, and park far away. Run up near it, but crouch before getting too close. Always stay behind it's butt, and crouching. If it turns, turn with it, staying behind it. 6 or so pets should do the trick, I have dogs ranging from lvl 20 to 140. Go for the highest level you can find, and ALWAYS stay behind it. After tamed, fly out w it to your base with the Pt. Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

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.

You cannot find these guys sadly on mobile.
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

Full ghille, kill off all dinos around the hyena you want. Dont need trap.
Just patiently crouch 100% of the time!!!
It'll stop, it'll turn so be prepared to turn with it staying behind it.
Don't be over eager to get too close an pet, every 2nd time they stop, wait for them to turn an then pet.
Pet then back off a good distance immediately.
Cactus broth helps but not needed.bit will help keep other wild dinos away better.

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
If you want to find a good cheap taming pen go whatch phlinger phoo 👍
You pet them, you don’t knock em out, pet doggo don’t hurt doggo
I see what other people have said but in my opinion these things aren't much of a problem especially if you have something like an argentavis as you cna pick them up and either kill them or put them in a trap if you have a trap built but don't have an argentavis my tip for you is to get a fast dino or if you are fast hit one and sprint towards your trap if your lucky you can get the whole pack in there and kill the ones you don't want hopefully this helps but I wouldn't try tame one super early game :)
Hyaenodons will only fight someone who they think they can beat. If the Hyaenodons do not think they can beat you, they will run. If they do, they will attack.
Wait!!!!!!!!! No hurt doggo only pet with guilly suit!!!!! Pet doggo
