Encountering Tips

How do I kill a hyaenodon? hyaenodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Fact: Hyaenodons in real life were actually not even related to hyenas , their closest living relatives are pangolins(which also are not related in the slightest to raccoons, anteaters, aardvarks, armadillos or hedgehogs). And real hyenas despite appearances are actually not related to dogs or wolves, in fact their closest relatives are meerkats and mongooses and meerkats and mongooses' closest other relatives are cats and civets(also known as bearcats)
They won’t attack unless they’re others nearby.
I found that on rag you can find them in the redwoods.
These guys are simillar to hyenas (well that's what they basically are lol) and these only attack you if they are in a pack of atleast 3, if there are two or one of these, they will run away from you.
These are not dogs. They are big furry pangolins.
In my game I tried to darted them but they all died I tried to use arowwes on some other ones but they killed me and my mammoth rebble ride I used him in the desert on lost island but he was only one of my new ones there extremely fast and strong
Hyenadons in a pack of 2 or less they will run away
3 hyenadons will attack if you’re wounded
A pack of 6 or more will attack no matter what and kill your level 200 raptor with 75% imprinting (found that out the hard way 😢)
When tamed they are killing machines in a pack and with a pet bonus
Pls stop spamming once again, it was not made by the ark Devs so u may as well stop spamming to add them
They can be really good win tamed😀 but they are deadly win in packs 🙁
Where do I find these hyenas I looked at snow place but no there
Man encountering a wild pack of these bad boys with no strap your screwed😂. Good luck out there stay strapped boys.
There’s a lot of people saying that these guys are closer related to pangolins than hyenas, and they’d be right! I’m sure you’re wondering how, because they look just like hyenas! We’ll look up a picture of a real one. Wonder no more because they’re actually super ugly!
I would recommend taming 4+ of high level ones, I encountered a pack of 5 good-ish levels and they almost wiped out my pt within 10 seconds they are apsolute killing machines

Fact about these things they know when they will win or lose a fight like for example if you were riding on an equus they would attack you but if you were on a Wyvern they wouldn’t little interesting fact I found on accident
These freaking things killed my Andrewsarchus I couldn’t do anything because she was low and my friend was afk…;( 1 👍=1 rip for Elliana her brothers and sisters miss her…

So one time my dad and I were playing trying to get a maewing and in an area with lots of dogs and he was in nothing and dogs came it gave him the option to pet but he didn't so sadness happened and yeah! If it gives you the option to pet take it hope this helps!
i want this on mobile ngl, it looks so cute (and i love hyenas so i may be biased lol)
Hyenadons are not dogs, they are more closely related to cats, sincerely - all actual hyena biologists
Someone should write dmg multiplayers for head ect...
Just so everyone is clear, if you go to your app store on your phone, it says the creator of Ark Mobile is Studio Wildcard.....so yes I think this should be added to Mobile.
