A raptor is a good pet for the middle/after start of the game. This is a easy tame but a strong fighter, all you need is:

6 ish meat. ( raw or cooked ) can be fish or prime meat. ( prime meat is the best )

Your fist. Or if you want it to go faster- use a sling-shot or arrows.

Boa. This is HIGHLY RECOMMEND and don’t just bring one. Bring 2+ you may miss the first time.

Nock out the raptor. ( so they don’t pounce on you go into the water.) boa it. And keep your distance because it can still attack and pounce on you if your using your fist!

Then feed them some meat or fish. 6+ meats

( and don’t worry. At first it seems as that the meat wasn’t good enough- but it will kick up the tame % about 50% of the way through.)

(Then while it’s taming if you haven’t already- craft a saddle.)

Then make sure it’s tamed and equip the saddle.

That’s about it!!

And I recommend leveling up: HP, DMG, and speed. And if you carry a lot, upgrade

Hopefully this was helpful. Ty for reading ☺️

And have a good day~

No you can't tame the alpha raptor

It is not hard to breed an entire army of these guys. All you need are two raptors to make an entire army.

When you are riding them u can have them pounce and u can jump off and they will still hold for a few more seconds

Up this if this works for u

Ps. Swipe up on the right side to pounce (Mobile)

Left trigger (Xbox & PlayStation)

Raptors are one of the best early/midgame tames, because of their availability, easy taming, and balanced stats. Also their saddles are relatively easy to craft. To tame one just bola it and then club it on the head, just remember that they can still attack, and watch out for others

Easily killable wih a sword so keep that in mind :)

:( sorry by the double jump does not work I meant that it doesn’t make you jump higher. You can still jump and then pounce.

YOOOO what is up guys QWERTY here just saying these things can pounce on some creatures like moschops as far as I know. I might tast out the pounce a bit more. Also, on mobile, you need to swipe down on the left side of the screen to initiate pounce.

Alpha raptors cann Not perform a jump attack.

Don't mess with the alpha rapter

How to tame for beginners

Supplies; about 15 to 20 meat (you can also collect it wile ur looking), 3 bolas, a wood club, hatchet or better weapon, 5 narcotics (incase high lvl)

When to do it: peek of dawn or early in the day, don’t be caught out at night

Where to do it: in a openish field or beach, not in a jungle because it is way to dangerous

How to do it: set out on a relatively fast rider tame. Look first at beaches, mostly rivers and bays. When you spot a raptor don’t get off your tame, first decide if this is a safe spot to tame it. If you do decide yes, get close enough for the raptor to chase you but then bola it wile it is close. Then quickly get off your ride and club the side of the raptor. (You can also do tranqu arrows to the head but if low health not ideal) the feed meat, and narcotics as needed. If it breaks free you can try to knock it again or kill it with hatchet

BOOM u got a raptor

-Sarco Master🐊

If you encounter one cut it off from the rest of the pack or kill all of the other raptors

I was gonna tame my first raptor,

And i knocked it out and when i was putting food in his inventory ,

My dilophosaur came and killed it😭

To the person who said they saw a raptor singlehandedly take down a diplodocus, diplos don’t do any damage, only big knockback.

Get it’s attention then when it gets close bola it then stand to the side of it and punch it till KO then feed it at least 50 raw meat just in case

These things are pretty good at hunting it’s own kind because it can pounce on smaller creatures or other raptors.

It only takes two tranq arrows to make it go sleepy night night.

My first one i’ve ever had was named Steel and it fell off of a cliff, was attacked by a Sarco and a Titanoboa and it killed BOTH of them and its health didn’t even go down halfway.

Either your best friend or your worst enemy. I tamed one and it was a pretty fast mount. It is like the Parasaur but faster and smaller and a carnivore. Can leap on small creatures (or other players if you are on multiplayer) while wild ones bite you only four times when they pounce on you. You can order YOUR raptor to bite until the prey is dead.

There is never just one.........
