When you locate one of these use the Equus to trap it under its belly and your free to tame without it being spooked

I've noticed that with enough space in a pen and ghille you can tame one in captivity easily. Don't need a second one nearby. Just run out of render distance and come back to a calm hyena if you spook it.

if taming the alpha be very careful. the alpha is very skittish and will run if gotten close to. to tame the alpha you must kill all pack mates.

Place one stone foundation and place stone doorways on all four corners, place stone hatch and put four stone walls on second layer, get argie pick up hyandon and drop in top, fly away to de-agro and then crouch up and sit under it, tame through hatchframe

Snatch one from a pack with a ptera,if it agros just render out and back in after 3min. Then go full ghillie and start petting

Crouch and slowly walk near it the pet it when it says you can just be careful they startle easy.

Just pet it like all you need to do is pet it

Drop it in a tall trap. If it runs constantly let it go until it chills and try again. Pet its butt but stay back.

Build a 1x1 out of thatch or whatever your heart desires, grab an argy and drop one in it. You can pet it through the wall! BOOM! Done. I used wood foundation and thatch walls that were lying around. Must be walls, so it can't "see" you. Mine had its head sticking through a wall and I got super close and just started petting it like George from of mice and men.

Is phlinger the only one that knows how to tame a hyaenodon or needs gaming?

These are impossible to take if your server is too crowded with players. Their behavior causes them to teleport randomly, and their threat detection AI is way too sensitive. Broken on all official servers currently.

Make sure your walls are tall enough, mine jumped out and off a cliff. RIP, 2019-2019

You pet the doggo, not feed him

Make a box of gates and use and argy to drop them in.

Crouch when approching these in the wild then you will be able to pet it everytime so long as the alpha is not to near to them.

If you somehow have access to Scorched Earth items, be sure to make and consume Cactus Broth before taming this animal; Together with a full set of Ghillie Suit and a clear taming area, you can easily pet it without risking an aggro of either flee or attack kinds.

I recommend watching Phlinger Phoo's taming pen video, he covers a really good one in it.

PVE
1. Pray to the ark god's you find one stuck somewhere.
2. Make sure you're close enough to see the pet timer and far enough away to not lose efficiency.
Good luck!

Don’t nock it out it will not attack you you just have 2 walk over and pet the cute thing

If there is a small Island,then put on it and it will try to swim but gives up and comes back relax easier to tame. Watch out for the tail when petting from behind. Lost so much of the progress of taming, took another 10 mins.
