Pteranodon
The pteranodon is a fast and versatile flying mount useful for traveling and scouting, though not always the ideal choice for battle. Knocking a pteranodon out doesn't take much, but can still be a challenge since it will immediately flee after being attacked. Once knocked out, taming is quite easy in comparison to other creatures, and with its low saddle requirements, this makes it an especially popular creature for newer survivors while still being versatile enough for more experienced survivors. What the pteranodon lacks in stamina, weight, and health, it makes up with its speed.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Bola it and shoot tranq arrows to knock it out quickly. Then kill a dodo and feed it to it. Make sure to not use fish since it sucks. And there you have it! Early game flyer with early game saddle for many reasons!
Ya know how they’re special movie is the barrel role? Well not only dose it give you a spite speed boost it also dose damage to enmities when you do it near them
Throw a bola on it and hit with a club. Then feed it meat!
Wait for one to land, and throw a bola at it. It should go down in 1-3 tranq arrows if it’s not a high level. If you don’t have tranq arrows you might be able to hit it with a club if it doesn’t get out of the bola. Shouldn’t need more than 20 meat but you will need a…

If you don’t have tranq arrows you might be able to hit it with a club if it doesn’t get out of the bola. Shouldn’t need more than 20 meat but you will need a lot of narco berries. Around 50 were used for my level 48
A 145 took one tranq dart to the face to knock it out.
Get a bola, find a pteranodon, wait for it to land, hit him with bola, shoot him with tranquilizers, and use meat or dodo kibble. Wait a while. EZ Tame {Difficultly Level: Beginner}

Build an elevated taming pen with gates that open inwards and a roof. Take a flier and lead the pteranadon in with the rare flower buff. Once it wears off the pteranadon will usually lose interest, and you can shut the door and knock it out, the bird is completely safe, and you can starve tame it without worrying about it waking up and flying away.
Headshot three times with a crossbow and a 150 is down
Cooking station 1 dodo egg 2 mejoberries or maybe more 1 full water skin 1 cooked meat 1 rockarrot I think s it to make food I kibble useful for pteranadon and icthysaurs I might be spelled it wrong
For a level 10 use 1 dodo kibble and it will be tamed in 4 minutes on mobile
I recommend taming 3… at the same time
Easy tame,bola tranq it, shove meat in its mouth, here u go.
wait for it to land, then bola. a tranq to the face will knock out low levels. you might need narcotics
If you are trying to tame a pteranodon with a slingshot I suggest that you find a pteranodon that is at least level 100 and higher but if lower I suggest you put a little extra time into getting a tranq arrow bow
If u want to tame a pteranodon get a ton of narcotics
And meat if the pteranodon gets low on the unconscious bar just use the narcotics
These things are awesome 😎 They are vey good for escaping high level spinos, I would upgrade weight,damage and stamina.
Btw, you won’t need to use narcotics if you use mutton.
Tip. You can knock out Pteranodons up to level 150 with just a bola and sling shot, you have to shoot the sling shot very quickly or the bird will escape
For beginners, find a low level one and bola it then smack it with s club. Give it raw meat and narcotics/bio-toxins.
