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.

Pteranodons are the top-recommended beginner’s flyer but all creatures have flaws— first of all the recommended stat points are put in its stamina— second they have only around 100-250 kilos they can carry. Including you and the saddle it’s about 1/3 or 1/2 it’s total…
Pteranodons are the top-recommended beginner’s flyer but all creatures have flaws— first of all the recommended stat points are put in its stamina— second they have only around 100-250 kilos they can carry. Including you and the saddle it’s about 1/3 or 1/2 it’s total weight. They are a pretty easy tame but it’s better to kill some type of small creatures so bugs can eventually spawn in.
If this was helpful enough make the button green and share it with friends! :D

It took 20 minutes of feeding it raw meat and jellyfish toxin but it was worth it! I, myself am on level 11 and now i have a level 36 pteranodon! It’s very easy to knock out all you need is a bola and a wooden club(Plus about 20 raw meat and like 10 jellyfish toxin)
Get a small flock of these (that’s the minimum for this) around 2 or 3 should do and attack any decent animal and just watch them shred them alive
You can perch on the very tips of redwood trees to regain stamina. (At least that’s how it works on MOBILE.)
When you first tame one find explorer notes to level up weight and stamina (these are the only stats they need) they’re good for killing brontos and most Dinos and very good tame
In ark mobile idk why but their torpor drops decently fast so bring a couple of narcotics and in multiplayer NEVER EVER BE OFFLINE WHILE TAMING A PTERANODON,IT WILL JUST WAKE UP AND WASTE ALL YOUR HARD EARN Resources,I learn this the very hard way.
The grassy area between the north zone 2 and the north zone 3, is full of pteranodons, sense it is a wide area, it is a great spawning place for large quantities of Dino's, just be careful, there have been many sightings of raptors roaming around- good luck.
If you want to get Xp on these it can trap anything smaller than a moschops in between its wings when it is on the ground. Moshchops give a lot of Xp for how easy they are to kill. Happy leveling!
nerfed! be very careful now they Nerfed flyers. there set speed is set to 100 and you can't add points into speed anymore. so plan your route cause you will need to stop while flying long way.
Why on earth isn't the taming bar going up?????
Easiest way to get a high level pteranodon is to spawn on ragnarok in the highlands. Bola one and knock it out. Then take it with ovis which are commonly found near by.
When you encounter this bird it is passive unless you take its egg. It's battle attacks are a spin attack and it does the most damage. The other one is a bite attack at it's not as effective. So when in battle do a spin attack to beat your foes.
Bola it on the legs it stops it from moving then club it until it’s unconscious then feed it lots of raw meat and narcotics
If the barrel roll isnt working for u(on mobile),try pinching the screen,it helped me

Yesterday, I tamed a 150 male and shortly after a 150 female. Both high health stats, high melee, stamina. I’m breeding them today, I should have a GOD pteranodon soon!
If u find an egg DO NOT pick it up the eggs are white with small light blue spots if u pick it up a hoard of them will come and kill u because they are so strong P.S I learned this the hard way
If you want to tame one just bola it and then hit it with some Tranqs and feed it meat cooked meat or prime meat or cooked prime meat or simple kibble hope you got you pt
