You can make them a meat pack wich works as a preserving bin.

Once tamed you cannot ride them but you can place saddle bags on it to act as a preserving bin and eating a dead corpse will regain its health almost instantly

I use mine as a pet

He’s the goodest boy

His name is Gud Boi

Worth every second of frustration too get

Usage in game:

1) tame aid- can preserve prime meat allowing you to tame carnivores with ease.

2) pack hound- I’d personally only recommend for packs of five and upward, but their ability to heal like Argents means they gain strength with every victory.

3) Pet- Their just cute.

Adorable!!! If you tame one you have a pet and a good damage dealer, but if you tame multiple.. more good doggos and HUGE damage!! Also meatpack serves as preserving bin!

Dakronik's fun facts:

The hyaenodon will let you know a few minutes ahead of time that it is going to rain. It will notify you using a sort of whimper and bark.

Do with this what you will!

Not sure how well this would work but I’m trying to give an actual use for this dino unlike other people who basically just say shoot it in the head for prime meat. Ok so here’s my idea, what if you made a organic polymer auto farm with penguins and hyeanodons with meatpack saddles? Basically you make a enclosed area and have a bunch of penguins breeding and a couple of hyeanodons with meatpack saddles on aggressive to kill the penguin’s off spring and yes sometimes they won’t harvest the body but they should get most of them especially if you make the enclosed area really small. The meatpack saddles will keep the organic polymer from spoiling according to online sources, the meatpack saddles increases the spoil timer of all consumables which organic polymer is. This is based off of Syntac’s element dust farm go check it out if you want a better idea of what I’m talking about. I’m gonna try it out myself.

Although ark portrays them more like dogs, hyenas actually belong to their own group which is closer to felines than canines. Despite this, real hyenas do act like dogos
