The best tame for caving as you can skip otherwise hard areas and dangerous enemies by just crawling on the wall or ceiling plus it can fit in tight spaces and you can use weapons while on back, making it a must for caves

Also megalania spawn in specific plains in lost island.

To tame a cancer lizard go into a cave and look up. When you see a disease lizard, shoot an arrow at him. He'll fall down and then you gotta knock him out. Use tranq arrows and boom! He's knocked out. Feed him some meat and wait for a little while. Boom you have a cancer lizard. P.S; Make sure not to be bitten by one of these bad boys because you'll contract what's basically heart cancer and probably die. Hope this helps! -Boa

Moschops + thyla = Megalania!!

Despite it's size,A FREAKING KAPROSUCHUS IS ABLE TO CARRY IT!!!plz keep this in mind when taming.

If you see it run 🏃‍♂️ and then don't look back

Pick me up with a Pteranodons, and I give you MegaRabies.

Despite having a temper of aggressive and a carnivore it gets attacked by other creatures.i have seen wild ones attack wild creatures it does Zero damage,plz wildcard make mega rabies apply for wild creatures too...

You can find Megalania in Genesis at Volcano biome at south outside. I do not know are there Megalania inside the volcano.

These things climb up walls effortlessly

Do not leave the cave when taming or it will respawn.

It's not a 'powerful mount with a deadly bite' at all. It's quite weak like a raptor. It climbs well, but will get wrecked by bats if you're not careful, it can't escape those.

This thing CAN HANG FROM CEILINGS! Scared the shit out of me when i was walking in a cave and 2 fell from the ceiling. Watch out for the mega rabies as it will drain your health. Make spare beds when in the cave to save your stuff if you die. Carry antidote as well as a saving grace.

Hard tame I only looked down to read through comments on here and it sprang up from being unconscious and almost killed me 😂

Megalania giving you a bad time? This toxic bite sounds like what modern Komodo Dragons have. They bite with a mix of venom and bacteria. This giant lizard is essentially Komodo’s great great great granddaddy.. They likely had a similar trait if you are all feeling sick after encountering one.

This thing fell from the cave ceiling I never saw it before and it fell in front of me so I shot it twice in the face with the double barrel shotgun

Definitely a worth it tame they lose torpor very fast but can be affected by bolas. The spot I recommend the most to look for them is in the cave with the artifact of the hunter. There are sometimes a couple of them there if you find two that are near one another and one is a high level and the other isn’t bola or try to kill the low level ( the other will fall to attack you too if you attack the first one). Bring lots of tranq arrows and lots of narcotics. When riding the megalania you can use weapons they are decently fast and faster climbing. Has a fifty fifty chance of inflicting mega rabies to enemies if tamed. Definitely a great tame

I have personally had trouble finding these guys on single player, but I found a tip that will help you guys! All you have to do is eat rare flowers and everything will aggro on you including these guys. They spawn in the redwood cave, carnivore Island cave the artifact of the hunter cave and the lava cave.

Is it just me or should this guy be able to track a Dino after it bites it like a Komodo dragon

Also it’s bite should slowly poison anything it bites until paralysis and eventual death

Not sure if I’m the only one experiencing this issue/bug, but when I try and shot one with a tranq arrow.They glitch into the ceiling/wall.. and won’t come back out
