Please tell me I'm not the only one who has thought about taming one, painting it green, painting the saddle red and naming it yoshi

TORPOR DRAINS HELLA FAST
BEWARE!

By far on the list of the most unappreciated mounts. The terror bird may be a costly tame but it's a raptor on speed. It has excellent stamina and mobility, making it a good scout and travel mount.

3 ways to tame them:
1. Make a stone trap (foundstion, doorframe, ramp, etc.). Get a bird, fly the bird, drag a dodo or a person around and make them bait. Without killing anyone the terror bird will be chasing you while you're flying in the air. Lure it into trap.
2. If you don't have a bird, you can solo it or do it with a friend. Find a terror bird. Start running to the trap. (Probably will die so put a bed in trap and respawn then repeat till bird gets trapped).
3. Bola it, shoot fast, bola it again before it tries attacking you or running away, shoot at it again.

TAKES AWHILE FOR THEM TO GO UNCONCIOUS. I once made the mistake and kept shooting as it took about 20 minutes for it to go unconcious it died from me shooting it too much.
YOU WILL NEED LOTS NARCOTICS!!!!

This is what happens when a dodo jacks up on steroids

When taming one, be sure to bring lots of narcotics if you don’t have kibble. Blows through torpor fast. Don’t listen to the amount that Dododex tells you, those amounts are too low.

These are a pain to tame but they are worth it, and the saddle is cheap

If you are looking for one go to the redwoods be careful because they are so annoying.hope this helps

DONT HIT iT ON THE HEAD IT WILL DiED

Advice:
These guys go down quick but wake faster, don’t be like me and come back the minute it wakes up

The most important thing to know about this bird is that it's eggs are used for rhino kibble. Thank me later. Rhinos are OP

If you put a 2 by 2 stone foundation, and doorframes as the walls, this trap works for almost every medium and smalll animals. I've tamed 2 thylas and 5 terror birds this way.

Once I found one terror bird and once I defeated it 2 others were attacking my scorpion Micru and sadly....Micru died TwT pls like dis tip so I can find a new scorpian. Btw they eat meat,I was trying to feed it berries tho so feed dem meat.

BRING LOTS OF NARCOTICS. They literally lose half their unconscious state before they even start eating. I started to run out of narcotics so I filled up their unconcious bar and ran back to my house (which was really close by) to get more. By the time i got back it was long gone.

If you're on valguero, head into the redwoods on a wyvern (if you have one) and then pick one up, take it out the redwoods, put it on a piece of grassy land and the Bola it while on the wyverns back, then just tranq it! trust me, this is literally the easiest way to tame them lol

If your taming one just to inform you it will need WAY more narc than shown

I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.
DO NOT USE A SLINGSHOT.
YOU WILL KILL IT AND ALL OF THAT HARD WORK WILL BE LOST.

Use the kaprosuchus and grab the bird. Then use your crossbow while mounted to k.o it, this allows you to tranq it in your own base for an easy tame.

Get a fully imprinted terror bird level 100+, paint it yellow, name it big bird, kill everything.

Keep a hold of jump as you're in air and it will glide
