-Some guide for taming this...chicken monster.-
FINDING
Theris are very easy to find on grasslands, near Green obelisk or near a swamp. Be wary that Parasaurus and Iguanodons look similar to the Theri when far away due to size and colores. Theris are taller than them.
ENCOUNTER
Theris are not aggresive, but they are territorial, which means that when you get close they will aggro, just like the Spino. However unlike the Spino, these guys have a much longer aggro distance, will pursue you a lot of distance and at a high speed. Be on good height, since they cannot climb or jump.
DANGERS
Theris are one of the most feared Ark creatures. They look very docile, like any other hervibore. Until you get close to them. Theris pack a massive damage (52, higher than Carno and even Spino on four legs!) and they also attack at godspeed. NEVER fight Theris with underleveled/small creatures. They do not have a chance, neither you.
PREPARING FOR TAMING
Crossbow with narc arrows is a good way and cheap, Theri has enough health to take arrows. Anyways, both longeck and crossbow work, but crossbow is cheaper. Of courses, the crossbow is slower than longneck. If you have a longneck with many darts and you are not lacking resourcws, then use longneck. This monster Is hervibore, even if his nature doesn't look hervibore. Use mejoberries or any crop. If you are rich and have exceptional kibble or Megalo kibble (for mobile and switch) use it.
TAMING
Theris are very fast, and never try to tame them on land unless you have an ascendant armor and ascendant TAMING weaponry. You can trap Theris, however, Theris can damage stone, wood, adobe and thatch. If you are making the Theri a trap, always go for stone. If it's a 140+ level, then you will have to consider using metal. Quetzals can pick Theris, being a good way to leave them on a trap. If no trap is usable, then simply shoot him on a cliff where it can't reach you. Be wary about it's torpor run too! it might escape. Theris wake up, so have narcotics and biotoxin in hand. Take many of these, I used 200-250 biotoxin for a level 145 on my single player world using crops.
UTILITY
Theris have 2 mainly uses:
-STRONG MOUNT: Theris are incredibly strong, almost comparable to a Rex with worse health and damage, but with higher dps and agility. Theris have a massive advantage over any other creatures in bossfights, and yes, since they are "hervibores" they have access to the beloved vegetal cake, restoring their hp. Best part, they consume it automatically when they lose health. The theris are the best creature to fight the dragon, since dragon has extra strenght when fighting carnivores like Rex or Spino.
-AMAZING FARMER
Theris can farm a massive variety of materials and better than anyone. Theris can farm wood, fiber, Thatch, Berries and much more materials. However, they have low weight and will easily get encumbered hitting trees. Theris can farm astonishing ammount of these materials and more!
5 ups and I'll do the Rex guide! meanwhile I'll be doing some other creatures guide.

Idk why i find these guys cute there’s defo something wrong with me.
—TIP TIME—
PASSIVE, AGGRESSIVE, OR NEUTRAL?
Theris are aggressive, only if you approach within touching distance or hit them first. The Explorer notes are slightly misleading, saying that they are full aggro. Basically just don’t bother them and they chill.
TAMING
The easiest way to tame a Theri is through a trap (search one on YouTube or just use one with metal billboards) BUT be wary as those long claws can slice through thatch and wood! KEEP IN MIND that they are herbivores (idk how because they go on rampages) so make sure you have berries on hand or it’s favourite exceptional Kibble at hand. AND make sure to bring a plethora or narcotics/biotoxin as torpor SUCKS.
USES
Theris are the ultimate gatherers, having 3 different attacks, each gathering different things. The primary attack, which utilises the claws, is good for damaging enemies and clearing areas while also getting wood. It mainly harvests meat from corpses. The secondary attack, which is a bite, is extremely useful for gaining hide from corpses and berries from bushes. The tertiary attack, or, as I like to call it, the tickle attack, literally is the Theri just tickling. This does DOT (damage over time) during the animation, landing a few hits, and is extremely useful for fiber and thatch.
That just about does it for this tutorial, if you would like more please use the arrow to the sky! (This is my first tutorial btw)

Looking to tame a Tickle Chicken! Welcome! Before we start, let's get packing!
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
-Knockout ammo (Tranq Arrows/ Darts or Shocking Tranq Darts)
-Knockout weapon(Bows, Crossbows, or Longnecks)
-Taming food(Mejoberries, Crops or its prefered Kibble)
-Lots of Biotoxin/ Narcotics
Now that you're all ready, let's get to taming!
Here are methods that you can use:
METHOD 1: Trapping
This is the most classic of all methods. Here is what you will need:
-Stone Foundations (4-9x), Stone Doorframes (Depends on how much foundations you're using) and Wooden Ramps(Depends on how much foundations you're using)
Now that the trap is built, lure the theri into the trap! (Make sure to use a flyer like a RG or PT, as theris are quite fast) After this, shoot down the theri and feed it your taming food. Make sure to be careful as their torpor drains rather quick so regularly feed it the biotoxin/narcotics you have packed. After a load of time and patience, name your newly tamed Theri and enjoy your Vegan Rex(or Tickle Chicken if you prefer)!
METHOD 2: The Cheap Method
This method is extremely cheap. Get onto a high rock or cliff where the Theri can't reach you and start shooting it down. When it starts running, chase it down. It may be a little annoying but you will eventually knock it out! After it's knocked out, just like the first method, make sure to feed it your biotoxin or narcotics from time to time(Also watch out for Raptors, they are a thing)! Wait a while and voila! Enjoy your new Vegan Rex/ Tickle Chicken and congratulate yourself!
Now, here are the utilities of the Theri:
The Theris have three attacks for gathering different items (They are also sometimes called the King Gatherer)
-The Bite Attack
-The Delicate Attack
-The Claw Attack
NOTE: There are different names for it online, but these are what I call them.
These attacks deal great damage and also gather a wide variety of items. A unique thing about the Theri's attacks is that they can damage both the mount and rider if you're on a PVP server (Tadaaa!!!)! They are also fast and are great mounts, with good health, attack and speed. The saddle is unlocked at level 69 (;) ) and is not too expensive!
That about sums up this guide. Thank you for reading and make sure to leave some feedback if there are any inaccuracies! Also make sure to check out my other tips which you may find helpful (I will list the most recent tip other than this down below) and happy taming!

-How to tame a Rex
-Your average ARK Mobile player
How to tame
1: get like 70 narcotic if want do right (I learned the hard way :( )
2:get narco berries it can be used constantly
3:get in a stone tower and the boi with 50 tranq arrows until it runs
4:when it runs go after it and knock with tranq arrows
5:put in 100 memo berries and sleep stuff from earlier
6:wait…
Yay you tamed a Theriz!
Please arrow if helpful
step 1 find therizino
step 2 therizino is chasing you
step 3 lure therizino to stone trap
step 4 you don't have a stone trap
step 5 AAAAAAAAA!!!!
Found one that’s black with lavender feathers and claws with blue around her eyes. Up to tame
Knocking it out is the easy part. Keeping it down? Better have a few hundred narcs
Ok so these might seem a monster to you, but these are actually the ultimate gatherers in the mid game, to tame this follow these steps:
1. Use the 4 stone gateway/2 door trap( make sure that you don't take more than 1 hit since 2 hits will murder you).
2. If you don't have much weapons, then use 2 primitive crossbows to knock it.( trust me 2 prim crossbows with 180+ tranqs is enough for a 270 theri )
3. I suggest using a balm or bring at least 150 bio toxin.
4. 3x balm with berries and toxin is enough.
5. Enjoy your theri.
If this dino spawns near your base and you are low and mobile player then just do one thing. Put your all stuff in your base and go near the dino then run in opposite side of your base and lead him to far away from your home before he destroy all you have even your pets. just don't uninstall the game bcoz of this😂
If you see this…
1 run
2 run
3 dont let your dinos get near the devils chicken
Dear survivor
Do you want to have your very own therizinosaurus? I have just the guide! Follow this and you should have one pretty soon. I did not include traps because they are too expensive for a small Dino like this and can be spent on bigger Dino’s.
LOCATE
1: find a tickle chicken
PREPARE
2: get more than enough tranq arrows (or your preferred on hand knock out method if it’s long ranged)
3: have a weapon that is long range (crossbow or longneck preferably)
4: pack lots of narcotics (you will need them), I learnt the hard way and had to frantically run around and get every bush in the vicinity for narcoberries
5: have an escape/tanky dino to travel on (iguanadons are quite fast and pteranodons can fly so they are both good)
HUNTING
6: pack your stuff and track down the chicken
7: once your tickle chicken is found again (trust me it’s a lot easier to come across one randomly then find it later) scan the area for other threats
8: find a nearby cliff/vantage point where the chicken will have a hard time tickling you
KNOCKOUT
9: hope your a good shot and hit the oversized turkey, the goose will run at you
10: if you picked a good spot the bird won’t get you and you can shoot it until it starts running, if you didn’t then hop on your preferred method of locomotion and get out of there. If you can find another vantage point then go to it. Either way this part can be difficult
11: if you shoot the chicken enough times it will run away, when this happens chase after it on your biological vehicle or just run after it. Try not to run into some bigger Dino’s or off a cliff
12: you shoot it and knock out the chicken of tickles
TAMING
13: feed the beast some majoberries (idk how to spell the name) or some kibble
14: watch its torpor, it drains really quickly. Force feed it narcoberries or preferably narcotics
15: rinse and repeat
USING YOUR GIGANTIC GOOSE
16: once your tickling terry wakes up, craft a saddle at a smithy (if you can, I’m actually making a saddle whilst writing this)
17: have fun with your therizinosaurus!! Make sure to level it up to make it stronger, faster and tougher. Also upgrade it’s harvesting abilities.
Sincerely, Alpharius
