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!

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

If you drop a quetzal due to knockout, and it lands next to a giga...just know, the quetzal belong to the giga. Now you get to watch your would be quetzal get eaten by a giga. Now you can go home and cry.

Who else thinks that they should make the normal saddle a multi-passenger

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

I have found quetzals all over the map besides red obilisk.

If you have a friend playing with you. Get an Argentavis, make your friend lift you using Argentavis and shoot the Quetz from there.

If youre solo, you can use Tapejara, jump on the passenger seat and just command the Tapejara to chase the Quetz, this can be a bit challenging because the whistle doesnt work well all the time.

Before you knock out the Quetz, make sure it wont fall into the ocean or river, so it wont drown. Feed it with the neccesary taming food, and there you have it.

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👌

Tamed it with cooked fish meat and missed my girlfriend's birthday and our wedding.

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.

When you get a platform saddle, put a bed on it so you don’t lose it. Like so people can know

I would love to know how you guys find all of these quetzals, I live right next to the red obelisk and havent found one near yet .-.

On rag, use a griffin and tranq darts... you can shoot from the back of the griffin while flying.... Just watch where the Quetzal lands and be prepared to kill the wild dinos round it when it does fall, like so people can see.

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.

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!

You can use honey to lure the quetzal to the ground and into a trap.

I've found easiest way is off a Griffin. Can do solo with ease. Just watch where you drop her!

Be careful taming these, they have a glitch that makes them go to coordinates 50 50 when high torpor,
50 50 on the island is the redwoods,
50 50 on Ragnarok is murdersnow,
50 50 on the center I'm not totally sure,
50 50 on velguero is in the lake I think,
And 50 50 on extinction is the safest, in sanctuary city.

Tame any level of a quetzal (preferably a crappy low level), and you can raid any type of base with it! Just search up suicide quetz.

F in the chat for all of the ones lost in duty
