Tips & Strategies
The fun way is to jump off and grapple to your argie and whistle it to attack and since argies are slow it won’t catch up in time so tranq till it goes out also bring parachutes and consider liking so more people will know
Idk why everyone makes this so complicated with all the grappling stuff all you have to do is,
1. Get or use a tapejara that’s a low level with a couple levels into movement speed
2. Get a rifle or crossbow with either darts or tranqs
3. Find a quetzal and then go to the back of your tapejara and set to attack the quetzal
(Since quetzals have high health and ur using a low level tapejara you can actually leave the tapejara to attack the quetzal, it’ll be fine)
4. Knock It out, not over water, and put whatever you want into it and ban you have a quetzal
Btw, you don’t need to worry about the tapejara’s stamina, it doesn’t decrease while you sit in the back seat
Me and my friends attempted to tame a Quetzel in the funniest way possible since we didn't have a Tapejara. We decided that one will ride a pternadon and will grab the other one. Then we will chase a Quetzel. The guy that is grabbed will shoot the Quetzel. I was the one driving and my ark crashed. My friend got dropped from the sky and by some miracle made it on 3 health. I re-joined as fast asi could and was laughing out loud. I think people can actually use this method somehow but better then us lol.

Guys this is the ersieht was to tame a quetzal. All you need is a tapejara.
1) Whisle your Tapejara to follow you
2) Ride you Tapejara and surch for a quetzal
3) When you found a quetzal, go an the back of the Tapejara (dont forget that you have to make the follow whisle on Tapejara, otherwise the will Flyer to the ground)
4) Make the attack whisle while you are on the Tapejata's back, so your tapejara will follow the quetzal.
5) Just shoot the quetzal with tranq darts/arrow and make the passive whisle on the Tapejara when he is too close to the Quetzal.
6) Repeat that till the quetzal gets knocked out and enjoy your quetzal taming.
TIPP: They spawn near the Obelisk and fly trought the whole map after spawning. GOOD LUCK!
DO NOT CRYOPOD IT WITH A PLATFORM SADDLE IT DESTROYS YOUR WHOLE BASE AND ALL YOU WORK
Quetz usually spawn at red obelisk, if you don't see one wait a few minutes for t to spawn. If you are looking for a high level kill the lower level one so it another can respawn
Bro whoever said that god to red obelisk and do a tidy save and get a quetzel bruh my game gave me a titanosour instead of quetzel 🤣
On mobile you can go to red ob and do a tidy save that will make an quetz spawn on a small island in front of the ob.
Use a tapejara, sit on the passager seat and set it on my target. Then make it fly to the quetz. Shoot the quetz with any sort of tranq ammo. Do this reapetly and you Have knocked quetz👌
If you manage to knock a quetzal out, try starve taming. If you never tried starve taming it’s just leaving a Dino’s hunger go to half way or lower and then you start feeding. I’ve done this many times and it’s very useful taming trick.
How to tame a quetzal

2. Get 50 tranquilizers ammo you have
3. get 70+narcotics or 50+bio toxin
4.get on the tapejara
5.find a quetzal
6. Go in the passenger seat
7.command the tapejara to attack target
8. Shoot at the quetzal while chasing it until it’s knocked out
9. Harvest meat to feed the quetzal
10.keep feed it narcotics or bio toxin
11.protect it from any dangerous creatures
That’s how I got a quetzal
Quetzals, one of the best dinos. Quetzals can easily be tamed with a buddy, all you need is a flying dino that can pick up people or has a multi-seat saddle. Load up with the appropriate tranq arrows, narcotics, food and set off across the map to find one. Low levels are brilliant for beginners as they can serve as brilliant carriers due to their high base weight stat. Higher levels however mainly are used as "Battle Quetzals", alongside the high stats it will receive from being tamed, pumping health and melee damage is the way to go. With that being said you'll be able to tank base defences such as PSX and Auto Turrets, aswell as kill dangerous dinos with ease. Maybe either of those don't tickle your fancy, then hey, make a "Party Quetzal"! Strap on some chairs, tables, food and lots more onto the Quetzal's Platform Saddle and hover in the air as you dance to Darude Sandstorm being blasted through someone's mic in game chat. If you can get a quetzal, do consider as they are brilliant!
Important note !!
Quetz will not follow you if you eat a rare flower!
If you have any dodo arrows, make a trap (tutorials on YouTube) the shoot the quetzal with the dodo arrows. The quetzal will get triggered at you and lead it to the trap.
I have been looking one for days and when I go to the red obby I find 2 in less then 10 mins so go there and up this
If you're rich af, just kill it, take the implant, set a trap on the revival platform, revive it then mag dump all your tranqs on this mf
I love seeing these giants birds flying past us

14. You have tamed a quetzal...
THE FUN WAY
To solo tame, grapple to an argentavis, and be ready to set your argentavis to passive and attack my target on command. Just maintain a process of having your argentavis chase the quetzal, when you get close enough set it passive, then fire a tranq dart/arrow. This is a long process, but it is by far the easiest way to solo tame, unless you already have a quetzal.
