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”.

If you have the bug where your game crashes when you try to leave a cave, I know how to fix it! You save RIGHT before the spot where you crash, then once saved, allow the game to crash. Go back on and wait for all the trees and stuff around to load and... BOOM got any cave tame,I discovered this when I tamed a megalosaurus🙂

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

Beware, when sleeping; they can look like rocks. I dont suggest jumping on them. So before you jump on a „rock” remember to take a good look at it to make sure its not a megalosaurus.

Don’t poke it... don’t just don’t

Pet it

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.

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

Be careful in caves....I swiped it with my sword thinking it was a carcass but it was sleep on the floor. Kept chopping and survived but yeah...watch 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.

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

Not much of a tip but where do you find these guys on CI

You can find them sleeping in the bottom of the collapsed area of the City Center on Extinction. This is the WSW (west south west) section of the diamond on the map.

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

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

On Crystal Isles, located in the north east around the zap crystals.

DONT WAKE UP WILD MEGALOSAURUS AT NIGHT THEY ARE REALLY BAD

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.
