Fun fact: megalosaurus (name translates to “big lizard”) was the first true dinosaur found. Discovered by Richard Owen, he thought it was quadrupedal (walked on all fours) and resembled a crocodile-lion cross. Later he would correct his data and soon classify this group of extinct line of ancient lizards as “Dinosaurs”.

I think we need a picture of a sleeping Megalosaurus because he is difficult to see during the day

First one I ever saw was a lvl 20ish in Hunter Cave. Wiki does not reflect that as a spawn zone.

This Dino is found in the cave in between volcano in big mountain. It’s not that hard to find in mobile.

For mobile players check the artifact of the clever cave

Whatever you do, do not get close to it with pretty much any medium dinos or fliers because these thing can pick up fricking argies and monch them to death so keep a good distance between them, you and your tames. Trust me on this i lost a lot of things to these monsters.

Pet it

How do they know if it’s day or night on the island if they spend all of their time sleeping in caves?

I was in a cave. I found a rock. I tried to get stone for kore arrows. It wasn't a rock. I died. It was one of these guys sleeping. I bearly made it back and got my still somehow alaive shinehorn.

You can find them sleeping in the cave close to the volcano i found three of them

When i was exploring the island map i saw the chitin cave. I wasn't ready for the cave and i had to run out because i ran past 3 of these things. Good thing it was daytime. Go in the chitin cave during the day just saying

So I found these guys when I was exploring the Chitin caves. Are these guys hostile and could they kill my tame in the caves; would just like to know before I lose my lvl 170 baryonyx because I don’t know what they do?

I've seen them in the central cave on the island.

During the day, they are very sluggish and attack slow. At night they are a frightening sight with much higher speed and attack. Beware when encountering them at night.

Can be found in Carno island cave, south west lava cave, south east cave near Stonehenge, Central cave near volcano, and possibly others. They are very rare spawns but if checked regularly you can encounter them if looking to tame.

I found mine sleeping in the jungle near vikings bay on the ragnarok map.

I found my first Megalosaurus in the Cave of the Clever... I got sandwiched between Three Megalosaurus and 2 Anthroplurea and their minions and died.

Found my mega near Viking bay on rag people need to see this so ^vote

This is not a tip, it is a question. On the island, do they spawn anywhere but the tea cave??

Encounter at night? RUN
