Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a terror bird? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a terror bird.
Best way to tame them is: Grab one with an Argentavis and drop him into a cage of wooden Spikes. Then go on any high spot and shoot on it.
If your gonna tame one bring bio-toxins, also make sure you’re in the RedWoods but are also near the swamp, that way you’ll have access to Sarcos and Titanaboas that’ll have prime meat.
The net gun easily sits them down to be tranq
It is a alternative to the raptor if you wanna glide but you need to be high level to have the stuff :/ but I would say bola it then use Tranq darts or arrows
When taming wait for it to run to you while you are charging a bola then tranq it
They need only 1 kibble at lvl 2
Bring a crap ton of narcs if you’re not using kibble, torpor drains very quickly
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.
To tame it you need to bola them and feed them raw prime meat or any kind of meat, don't forget to bring narcotics as their torpor drain is high
Easy knock out but hard to keep down. To tame, it is recommended to ensare or carry the terror bird.
To the guy who said they thought about painting one green and naming it Yoshi:
I thought about that too on a raptor.
I'm the argie king tame all birds terror birds being carried by argies drop em in enemies bases ez base raid tame all birds kill a terror bird or 🦤 I will find you and kill you u have been warned.
Other people leave old taming traps on the red woods beach. Check then frequently with a argy. The terror birds get stuck in them. If you're careful, you can knock them all out (if its the whole flock) from the edge, then land inside and be safe and cozy for your tame. (Just take plenty of narcs and food)
Use a bola and then you'll be able to easily tranq it but watch its torpor its drops very fast
Step 1: Make a 2x1, wood or higher, open celling, ramp on side.
Step 2: Find and tame an animal that can carry it. (If there are multiple, phone a friend and take them all!)
Step 3
Torpidity drains super fast on these. Practically have to spam narcos the whole time, don't leave unattended.
Can be snared With a bola no need for kapro
head modifier is a lie, be it either the beak, the eye or his ass everything gets the same damage, so shoot the amount of tranqs/arrows required for the body or you will en up chasing it
have to admit chasing one with a crossbow while riding another terror bird was fun
Downside: it's weight. So low jfc.
They are not the best for platform by far, so avoid cave activities that require lots of traversing platforms. Can be useful for open path running.
