To climb a tree with your cleo walk up to tree while on its back and hold x (for ps4) and they will climb the tree

Do not go near the redwoods on a flier without good armour and a nice melee otherwise you will get destroyed by a thylacoleo

Tree yaay AH MY TAME giga died to thylacoleo REVENGE TRANQ TRANQ oh knocked out yay

Best thing to do if u have dlc is go to scorched tame one and bring it across so much easier

I use mine for caving. By jumping while biting I avoid bat bites to my character and it helps dodge arthro venom. They are decently tall so it is more difficult for cave creatures to hit you.

These guys are all over the southern coast on Ragnarok, where the desert meets the sea. This is great as they don't have the redwood trees to hide in and they just kind of stroll about.

There's a large flat topped mountain that looks a bit like Tabletop Mountain. I build a taming pen on top of this mountain, then pick up a thylacoleo with an Argy or Wyvern. and drop it in the trap. Their torpor drains quickly, so pack loads of narcotics! They're fussy eaters too and prefer cooked meat, preferably cooked prime meat. Also as the trap is high up it's out of range of other predators and you easily select which thylo to tame with a spyglass. Piece of cake!

NOW I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST GOT A WYVERN AND I WAS CLUELESS I FLY INTO RED WOODS AND BAAM IT HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK GOT KNOCKED OFF MY FLYER AND CHEWED INTO OBLIVION AND THEN MY FLYER GOT KILLED

Ima tell you, these things arent great to tame, but amazing creatures when tamed. You should build a 2x2 doorway trap, with ramps on one side. Shoot the thyla from far away while off your mount, hop back on, and if you're using an argy, pick the thyla, the dop it on. If on something else, just bait it. Used cooked meat to tame, and dont go near the trap unless it's torpor running. Enjoy your new climbing marsupial. (Tip is for the island)

Find them in desert or genesis 2 easier to tame there than redwoods. You can net gun them. They prefer cooked over raw meat.

FYI

Thyla's are fairly easy to find/hunt/track ...

They are usually found in redwood and/or desert regions. In the redwoods they are o ly on the largest trees up about 1/2-3/4 up between the ground and the first branches. There has to be dense underbrush and boulders in the immediate area, and lastly (but most importantly) if the area is plagued with Carno's and Terror Birds .... start looking UP

I managed to tame one stuck in a fallen tree on Scorched Earth..

These things are a must have and relatively easy to tame. Basically all you have to do is get a tapejara and have someone sitting on the back seat with a bunch of tranqs. It’s easiest to have a nice open space. Then just shoot it and slowly fly away from it until it’s knocked out. Then just feed it a couple of narcotics and prime meat and bam! The best tame you could ever ask for!

I wish these guys where like the megalani

Hugely versatile and great for gathering hide. Tested gathering today with a mate boosted, imprinted pack against an imprinted giga with 400% melee. Hands down went to thylas and not just because of mate boost. They gathered about 5x the amount in the same time, against the same kinds of dinos.

Argys can pick them up now try it out

You CAN pick it up with Argentavis idk y it says you cant but you can

Just let your quetz tank them or pull them into a trap, easy tame.

To survive the encounter, rub glue, vegimite and toothpaste into hair and glue forks to ears trust me it works ;)

Whenever I fly in the redwoods, I always have my flyer set to follow me and I have my strongest pile ready in my hotbar in case one of these guys rips me off my bird

Ran into one while walking the redwoods on my Rex. It just walked around my Rex's feet ignoring us completely. Until, that is, I unseated myself. As soon as I was standing on my Rex's back it took notice. I ended up standing out on my Rex's tail and tranqing it. So apparently like titanboa's they don't aggro on Rex's.
