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!

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.

They're in the top 10 hardest to tame

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!

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

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.

How to make a meat farm!

Step 1: tame a pack of hyaenadons

Step 2: equip them all with meat packs

Step three: put them all in an enclosed space and set to aggressive and wandering

Step 3: use an argy or something to pick up creatures like dodos and lystros

Step 4: sit back and watch the carnage

Keep doing this every so often and later when you need meat or hide check the hyaenadons inventories.

I put them in a place where trilobites spawn often as well so it was also a chitin farm.

They only refrigerate meat so don't expect to refrigerate eggs, biotoxin and all that good stuff.

I equipped mine with meat packs and added them to a whistle group. Then I went out and whistled them to attack anything upwards of parasaurs they’re great for hunting.

Little known fact, they reduce the weight of raw meat from 2 lbs per stack to 0.8 per stack.

I use mine as guards to my slave cages

Very easy to breed. Make excellent cave divers. Alpha does over 1000 dmg per bite with 800% melee and a +4 pack bonus and mate boosted and petted.

These things give the same amount of experience as a therizino. Why?!!?

Just did the ice cave on the island with 8 of these. It was a cake walk. They took on 20+ bats at once. Hard to get them in and out the cave though.
