First encounter with murder chicken after i lost my two primary mounts (equues & pteranodon) to the murdur forest...
Ooh what a nice looking chicken that spawned near my base , i bet it makes a good mount lets check its stats like a noob from up close...
[Therizonaurus whatever female lvl 4] i bet i can tame this without a scrat... (Died)
Died x200
The base, the tames, everything fell before the might of the murdur chicken.
Which lit an intense ember inside me. (I want this b*tch even more)
10 deaths later and i got a murder chicken mount!
It's not much but it's honest work.
Me: Now ...Tris... attack everybody. Mu Ha Ha Ha!
Me: Not the tree you idiot!
Tris: daddy help me I'm stuck!

If you see this thing it will kill you, your friends, your family, some guy down in Africa, and an alien on another planet.
Hug the chicken
Trust me just hug it
You do not find tickle chicken. Tickle chicken finds you.
Kill all of them. I left my Argy (Balerion) alone for one second to collect berries. When I returned Balerion was killed by one of these shit.
One kill= one pray for Balerion. He was the best
Fairly simple battle.
-find one
-do not go near it
-find a rock
-climb the rock
-crossbow
-itβs gone
A level 10 did 4000 damage to our level 137 Giga, and almost killed a level 200+ Argie. Be very very careful with these guys.
Anyone who is saying to run from these clearly doesnβt understand how fast they are.
Do not come close, because we're not passive.
When you get too close, we become aggressive.
We can kill hundreds of things that's in our way, all just in one day.

RUN if near your base RUN itβs time to start a new
Please man, if you are new to the game, and see one of these, TURN 180 DEGREES AROUND, AND RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
I know what you're thinking: I can take one of those! No problem!
Yeah, that's what I thought too. That's how I lost my lvl 28 Dilo Phospho, lvl 27 Dilo Sauro, two lvl 6 dilos (yes I am a Dilo addict- why do you ask?), AND lvl 6 Raptor Resilience- along with several dino eggs I was about to use to tame the darn thing. Those were all my first tames, by the way. (R.I.P to them- rest their souls, likely still haunting me to this day for my stupidity. I deserve it :D)
Trust me, YOU CAN NOT DEFEAT A THERIZINOSAURUS WITH ANY MELEE WEAPONS WITHOUT DECENT ARMOR!
Oh. And bolas don't work on them either. As if the LITERAL DAGGER HANDS WEREN'T ENOUGH.
If you see one of these early game, DO NOT ENGAGE. It's not worth it, and it will cause heartbreak seeing your tames die to these Edward Scissorhand spawns from the pits of Tartarus.
If you must tame one, please use a trap or load em up with tranq arrows from a VERY GENEROUS DISTANCE. They don't look it, but these things are SPEED. If it starts running at you, either pray to a god of your choice, or get on your mount and start running like your life depends on it- because it very well does.
Overall, if you don't have an Army of Trikes and Raptors to back you up or a getaway flier, I do not recommend confrontating one of these things. They are deadly- if the samurai sword fingers don't scream death and doom, I don't know what to tell you.
