Never underestimate how far these things can jump! I flew with my argy around the Redwood during a metal run and I spotted one of these a good distance away on a tree. Figured I'd give it a wide berth and go around it via the swamp. I'm smack in the middle of the swamp as high as the Redwood treeline and the next thing I know this thing jumps me off my argy and pinned me to the swamp floor and murders me and my argy who was on aggro. In my death throws I saw that it was at level 95. Like an OP homing missile they are when they leveled up. Now I use the coastline as my flight path to metal runs on the peaks.

if you want to avoid them, take your flying tame and fly OVER the redwoods. above the treetops. you can do that or go around, or take a snow owl and keep the owl vision on to spot them and go around. you can also go on a griffin, but NEVER DIVE in the redwoods, because they can pounce you off your griffin. you can shoot off the back of a griffin if you want to tame them.

The best PvP strategy is to tame one of these then ask your enemy to go to redwood forest. Then follow your enemy when he is at the forest. Then he will sit there in confusion like what?. Then jump down form the tree and OHHHHH RKO OUTTA NOWHERE.pounce on him and he’s dead. Rinse and repeat with other PvP enemies.

This things are perfect for the caves.They can climb and jump,climb and swim very fast.The taiming is a little bit hard

These things are no joke, they tear through a full pack of allos like they’re made of paper

Come on dododex you have to know argentavis can pick up thyleco too up vote that is very important

Yuo can Pick them with an argy and Put them into a taming pen If your Brave enough but make the pen's walls high enough because they can JUMP as hell

Bring a simple rifle or a double barrel shotgun. Since these two weapons do the most damage and make sure to have healing bars to gain health.

If you live in redwoods and you are having war with other people tame these climb a tree and wait tell your freinds to do same and once your enemies come jump off grab them knock them out and put them in a metal cage in a room with pegos outside in case they have stuff and boom you have prisoners

Good for travel up and down cliffs or anything. Awesome tame. One of my favorites.

Easy tame just shoot it with a harpoon launcher with the nets, then place wooden billboards around it, it can not get out.

They can run up redwood trees and cliffs by pressing the jump button while facing the cliff/tree. They can also climb down again, they can pounce and they barely take fall damage. They can only climb up and down though, not left or right.

A very good tame it’s fast great damage and fun to ride around in also great for cave exploration and surprising enemies in pvp

Knock out with a net gun, then tranq. Remember to net gun every few seconds.

The cheapest way of taming one of these is with a crossbow on top of a dino with a lot of hp, but that only works with low level ones. For high levels, you'll need to build a taming pen using stone doorframes. A 2×2×2 pen will work just fine, just be sure to kill all hostile dinos in the area.

I just fly around the redwoods for ages until one of these shows it’s face trying to kill a dilo and then I pick it up and back to the pen we go. Tamed 3 like this

I hope this helps people!

Best place to tame them is SE, there are no trees so they cant ambush you.

My all time favorite mount!! Find a high level and make it yours.

Add the points to health, stamina and the rest in attack and he is good to go.

Tip for taming one:

Build a taming pin (at least 3 high), get your argy (or other flyer) and find the thyla you like. Shoot it 1 time with a tranq dart from enough distance so it will fall out of the tree without killing you, hop on your argy and pick the thyla up when he's running towards you and drop it in the pin. Tame it with cooked prime meat (they prefer cooked) and there you go! BTW, make sure you have enough narco to feed it while it's taming.

There imposible to find on switch
