Uhh Rapter is the species of animal( the deinonychus is a raptor) if ARK was going for a Valocirapter that went WAY off, the Valocirapter is about the size of a chicken and covered( by covered I mead The whole body is covered ) in feathers.

Always keep an eye out for raptors. Their ability to pounce you off your mount and immobilize you is deadly and can catch you by surprise easily.

Also note for new players to ark: When taming raptors you should always check to see if the raptor is in a pack.

This annoying Dino can kill u if ur on under lvl 18.. so stay away from this Dino cause they have a skill that it will make u stuck..

Follow these steps to get your raptor .

Step one make a club

Step two find a raptor

Step three keep hitting air with your club and the raptor will jump on you

Step four while you’re still hitting with your club you will hit the raptor

Step five the raptor will finally be unconscious and you go out and kill some dodos

Step six bring the dodos meat back to the raptor and it will almost instantly be tamed

Pounce by swiping down on left side of screen thank me later

Make this go viral

I hate these things DONT TAME IT ! They always kill me and when I tamed it it was a big disappointment! Make sure you ONLY TAME HIGH LVL ones

When I was a noob I saw a raptor in the wild And I bola it so I can kill it but then 6 more and a alpha raptor And I tried to get on my par but I was to late they killed him and then me

These things are extremely overpowered so bring a dilophosaur or 2

I tried teaming a raptor and never worked

I got a question

And that is how do you tame an alpha raptor cuz it spawned right in frount of me and killed me... twice

Try to stay by there side will punching them so the don’t pounce on you

Just to let y’all know, if when imprinting it asks for hand fed saw basic or superior kibble, if it asks for a kibble that you don’t have but you have better kibble, it will still work (My example) my megalosaurus asked for basic, I only have extraordinary always on hand, it still worked just fine, just a little thing I thought I should say, 👍🏻 If this helped you -Wolfa191

when exploring always bring a fast mount with decent stamina at the time Iguanadon cause in gadropedal form they wast no stamina and are very fst

I picked a raptor up with my argy and dropped in a tame bin and narced him.

Whip out your chain bola, 9600 Cooked Fish Meat, and 8 tranqs to quickly tame a level 300 of one of these bad boys in only 33 hours! Don't forget the metric ton of narcotics though.

If you're playing on scorched earth do not build a base where these annoying assholes constantly spawn.

BOLAS

This is the best mount for a survivor. They can kill stuff really easily cause they have so much damage and health and they are super fast so if you attack a really strong Dino you can run away and they can transport you to a destination really far away, really fast and it doesn't take long to tame! They're great!

Bola them knock them out with slingshot or bow then GIVE THEM MEEEEEEAT
