The key to tame almost every creature is to have a good high ground, like rocks, from there you can just tranq it and feed it berry or crops. I recommend using soothing balm too.
Therizinosaurus
The Therizinosaurus (or "Tickle Chicken") is a swift, clawed herbivore prized for its versatility. Its specialized strikes make it an exceptional resource gatherer, while its strength makes it a powerful combat mount.

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Therizinosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Don’t let your tames wander near this psychopathic murderbird. My passive Triceratops walked by one, and it killed him FOR NO REASON before I could do anything to save him. What kind of herbivore is this? I miss you, Raymond.
If it’s near your base, move base
Hello, I will show you how to kill a theri! (aka tickle chicken) The only reason I’m not doing taming is because I haven’t managed it yet :( (Sorry) First you will need: Raptors a least 4. You can’t kill it yourself because it will tickle you. aka kill you. Plz don’t…
Hello, I will show you how to kill a theri! (aka tickle chicken) The only reason I’m not doing taming is because I haven’t managed it yet :( (Sorry) First you will need: Raptors a least 4. You can’t kill it yourself because it will tickle you. aka kill you. Plz don’t learn the hard way……. Give it a like if it helped! (I just found this out after one of these attacked my raptors.. No one died except for my pterodon :( )
here's how to tame a therizino using a very cheap method - slider, a guy that just did this. Read through the end.

here's how to tame a therizino using a very cheap method - slider, a guy that just did this. Read through the end.
Materials needed:
a mount that you can stand on (stego, trike... I used a stego for this)
crossbow/longneck
about 100 tranp arrows/darts (you'll see why in a moment)
~75 crops
~187 narcotics
~450 narcoberries(black ones)
or it's preferred kibble
or 40-50 biotoxin(i didn't use biotoxin so I'm not sure how much you would need to use so bring extra just in case)
spino dossier location/a rock that the tickle chicken can't reach you on(tamed mine at spino dossier; or you can just use the mount you bring but make sure it has high health)
Steps:
1. With your mount scout for a tickle chicken and clear the area if your a bad shot like me
2. Bring your mount to the spino dossier and have them on passive, that is important. Set them up opposite of the actual dossier and on the other side of the ruins with the staircase
3. Jump onto that ruin, and then jump and walk forward into the taller part of that ruin(follow this step as I have written it because it is very important)
4. Look for that chicken and shoot it with your crossbow/longneck
5. While it's running towards you shoot it one more time before it gets up against the pillar you are on
6. When it gets to you start shooting it again
7.(It might not happen every time) When it starts running away stay up there because it can't hit you
8. Keep shooting it if it will run into the other side of the dossier and get stuck where you can shoot it until its knocked out once it does go down and put in your narcotics/biotoxin(the berries will come in at a later time while your taming) as well as the food you're goin to use, I used about 75 corn
9. Once your narcotics run out you'll need to put in your blackberries. IMPORTANT NOTE: it's best to feed the sleep drug 2 at a time a regularly. what I mean by this is feed it when its torpor is about to go below a certain number, ex: feed it twice before it goes below 400 or 500, the number doesn't really matter as long as you can keep it from waking up before it is tamed
10. After you run out of sleep drugs put the blackberries in, do the same thing I mentioned in step 9 but lower that number to about 150-200 if you don't have that many blackberries, if you have a stego feed all of your blackberries to it and hit some bushes with it you'll get a ton of berries and seeds. If you do have enough berries follow those instructions except for gathering more berries.
Before I continue onto stepp 11 I want to let anyone who's reading this tip that play on console/PC I got no clue if this works for you since I only play on mobile, you could try this but I don't know if it'll work and I would hate for you to lose your mount and life if it doesn't. Sorry😔.
11. If you get bored of waiting like me you could do the sleep trick and skip the time but you might want to trap the theri so it doesn't get killed by anything after it tames
12. Name you tickle chicken
13. put saddle on tickle chicken if you have the materials for one or if you got one from daily gift
14. tickle some random creatures
Locations:
Spino dossier is across from herbivore island on the cliff part of it.
Extra notes:
If it turns the other way(away from the corner) chase it until you knock it out using whatever gets it stuck.
I am lvl 32/33 and I just did this if you're wondering if this is just a false tip or an actual helpful tip.
If you don't have a saddle already made or don't have blueprints don't worry just play the game how you normally would and you might get a blueprint from the daily gift or until you reach lvl 69.
This was how to tame a therizino with your guide, slider. Have a great time taming and good luck👍🏾👍🏾.
If you see him get into high rock and it cant attack you unless..
If you level, it actually has decent weight.
On mobile I tamed a level 50 and leveled a few in weight, and now my Therizino friend now has over 500!
The thing is a beast! You use it for one of the boss fights ! Tame it in the start and level it up
U don't have to worry about level of your dinos during breeding in ark mobile. I was able to breed 2 level 215 theris to get a level 210 theri while on normal mode (max level:150). So I guess breeding on ark mobile does not work the same way as ark on PC otherwise it…

So I guess breeding on ark mobile does not work the same way as ark on PC otherwise it should have despawned.( This is only for Ark mobile players)
If you have your movement speed at 17 you can just about outrun it but you might get tired
Really high rock, two crossbows, about 120 arrows. They have this juke where they pretend to run away and the moment you hop down to chase they will come running back to attack. Would recommend high movement.
If you see this thing run because my pulmoscorpion got killed by this dinosaur
I learnt that if I don’t look at it and acted like it ain’t their it won’t kill me and my tames…… imagination is a crazy thing
Sit on the back of a high level thyla and lazer it with tanks or shocking tanks trust me this is the easiest way to knock these monsters out
I would recommend going to the green obolisk to know I one out! If you have an Argentavis, definitely bring that, also be sure it has high health/melee damage, because there are lots of theris at the obolisk, and if you really want that theri ya got, then ya might just wanna…
I would recommend going to the green obolisk to know I one out! If you have an Argentavis, definitely bring that, also be sure it has high health/melee damage, because there are lots of theris at the obolisk, and if you really want that theri ya got, then ya might just wanna kill off some of the others before they kill you.
Also, if you are on mobile, swipe down to collect berries/ wood and swipe up to do the theri’s 2nd attack!
I saw one of these and laughed thinking that I could beat it with my army of level 60 raptors and a carno....
Boy was I wrong...
If you see one of these RUN and pray it never finds you😂
Unless you have a strong Dino not a raptor to all of you new peeps, you should run they are strong and they may be fluffy don’t let the tickle chickens.
If you find this thing as a beginner and it goes after you RUN AS FAST AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN BEFORE IT KILLS YOU AND ANY OF YOUR TAMES. Otherwise tame it with a gun's tranq bullets so it will be knocked out before it slices your heart out. If you want to kill it I think you…
If you find this thing as a beginner and it goes after you RUN AS FAST AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN BEFORE IT KILLS YOU AND ANY OF YOUR TAMES. Otherwise tame it with a gun's tranq bullets so it will be knocked out before it slices your heart out. If you want to kill it I think you should just get a trike army (more than three) or any more powerful dinos. You can also shoot it (go for its back) but I dont recommend it. If you can kill it with a dodo I would consider it a god dodo.

The therizinosaurus can destroy houses wood and below and it can slash you with its claws dealing lots of damage and it can bite you injecting torpor it has a 5 meter radius until it gets aggressive I think
