If you are having a hard time finding spino's in their respective spawn zones (especially Ragnarok), kill all the fish in that area. They share the same spawn capacity and can be out spawned by coles! ( up vote so Rag players know!!!)

Spawn near the beach they said, it'll be safer they said...

The most terrifying thing. Especially when you’re low level.

Once tried to tame one for my bf while he was offline bc he wanted one. Flew with my Pterra and shot it full of 20!!!!! tranq arrows . Didn’t even flinch. I got too cocky and went too close to the edge of the cliff i was standing on. I fell off RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE SPINO. it’s health was low enough that it started to run away. Without looking back, i whistled for my Pterra to follow and ran for my life. currently trying to get another one :( wish me luck!

As far as I know, only 3 wild carnivores will aggro onto the sight of your spino, other Spinos, Rexes, and Gigas. You can probably outfight other spinos, outrun rexes, or outfight lower level ones, and outrun gigas. Very useful.

I found one across from my base. I followed one of the tamimg pen tutorials but made the pen to small and the game kept crashing. I died over 5 times and finally got it trapped then a raptor killed me, when I respawned I saw the spino running towards my base. I thought it was the end of my dinos but no, it looked at my dodo the wrong way and all my creatures (10 dodo, 1 dimorphodon, two dilos,1 Iguanadon, one petradon, and two parasaurs) all mobbed it and it started running faster than anything I've seen in ark. I ended up making a huge pen and having to chase the spino into it because of the trauma from all those dodos... Now I have it, but am over level 52 and don't have a saddle for it.

Scream ERIIIIIC!!! They'll come running like a Rex to a diplodocus

Do not fall off a cliff if they're present....

these aren’t bad if you’re prepared; I killed one at lv 10 with only a bow and arrows and a cliff. Great for hide and meat harvesting

If you see one, and your a low level, just run. Don’t shoot it, just turn, and run. If your level 50+ then I say go for it. DO NOT ATTACK UNTIL YOU REACH LEVEL 50 OR HIRER! IT WILL SLAUGHTER YOU.

I found a Lvl 140 Spino by the Penguin pond in The Centre, it got stuck in the ice caverns, easiest big boy tame ever

When there's a spino right outside your wooden base and you accidentally open a window.

Spinos love to stay close to their water source, so if you encounter one in the wild, run as far away from the water as possible. It will turn around and forget about you.

They best way to find spinos is by any river. Also there very large, colorful, and have giant spines (duhhh) they spawn at any river.

If spinos are still a fish eating pain in the butt, you’d better keep a safe distance and take a bunch of screenshots, so next time you run into one, keep away from it

Do not mess with one In that is tamed and 150+ because when their in water there faster than a raft they will screw you over

There's one at the beach that must have eaten about five of my ready to tame Parasaurs.

Low levels stay away

They run SOOOO fast so if you don't have a flying mount or a super fast land mount or something that can take it on your dinner...

Best described as an underwater rex...
Just put melee damage a little higher and you're done.

It’s usually having fun in the river, just don’t become it’s fun.
