when taming a thyla put a line of large bear traps, get the thyla agro'd on you, and try an get it stuck in one. then shoot it stood along the line, so when it frees itself it'll run towards you, also stepping on the bear trap
agro'd - tryinig to attack you
thyla - thylacoleo

Wonderful mount to grab, the best part is the climbing cliffs. Run right up to them and hit and hold the jump button, if you can do it you can climb the mountains. They also have a bleed effect that helps when dealing with large predators or high health dinos.
Yes, they are evil jump and pin guys sometimes they carry you off for a distance, best defence is to always be prepared with a strong spear on hand, when they stun wait till the timer is done and then jab away. I find an easy tame method, hit em from extreme range with a really strong long rifle and electrolized tranq darts or regulars. Keep mounted on a decent health tame and keep shooting till it goes down.
Oh and after taming, you can sit on them and fire your rifle while mounted, so they are great for taming more of their own kind.
DONT I REPEAT DONT FLY IN THE REDWOODS thylas give you a deadly hug when encountered i once got killed 2 times by these dudes there was 2 off them i was running around bored and i got jumped by 2 and when i tried to get my loot back i got jumped again.
Whoa whoa why does this guy prefer cooked meat rather that raw ???
They are mean.
Unless you have a sword or ascendant pike, if it knocks u off ur flight animal ur more cooked than that time ur mum burnt chrimbo dinner. If you do have one, just hit it until it dies and u have to be fast because when you hit the ground it packs a serious punch.
Good luck survivor.
If you see one on a tree, shoot it so it will come down and pick it up with an Argentavis to bring it into a taming pen
Go to Ragnorak in the desert with trees and metal and you'll.fijd them strolling the grounds. I hate the redwoods thylas
They don't seem to be in the trees in fjordur so don't worry about them. They wander around the forest floor. Could be a bug who knows. Redwoods located NE corner of the map.
If you are playing on Ragnarok, they are easier to tame in the desert biome, very common around lat 86, lon 63.
If you can't find these guys easily, I recommend using a Snow Owl. Flying high in the redwood, and with the Owl vision you can spot every creature in there from far away. If you don't have the Extinction DLC to tame Owls, just buy one from a player of your server, or use a command to spawn them.
Thylacoleos wake up kinda fast when cryo sicked
Best pvp mount EVER. Better than gigas and rex's because they are easier to tame and have more stamina. It's only real threats while riding it in the wild are microraptors, gigas, and other players on gigas and thylas. It can kill almost anything it finds, and the things it can't kill, it can outrun EASILY.
This big kitty somehow got out of my trap every time I tried to trap it. I was sad........ BUT! I got an idea! 💡💡💡 To use the Beelzebufo! Long story short, I tamed it, and now one of my favorite tames. 🤩 (I used cooked prime meat to tame my Thyla)
When I did my own tests on day one of the patch in single player, 4 kibble was 25% for 150
I wouldn't bring anything short of 16 kibble.
This thing is the reason I lost all of my gear including my spino if you’re in the redwoods Always be aware he will dismount you and kill you in seconds so be ready to shoot as soon as he grabs you
So. Taming a thylacoleo isnt really easy. Today was the first time i have tamed a thylacoleo and i must say, trying to find it is a pain. I used my quetzal and a parasaur called "bait" on turret mode to find him. If you cant use a parasaur try just going around the waters near redwoods and try to spot 1. Note: Better use a quetzal if you have one, dino's cant dmg you while holding them with quetzal. Find a thyla, shoot it with a single arrow and when ut falls go and grab it. Carry it into a cage or tranq it till it falls unconcious. You will need around 40-60 cooked meat depending on lvl (i am on 0.2 difficulty). Around 20-40 tranq arrows and at least 200 narcotics. When it falls asleep put in the food od choice and narcotics and wait for it to wake up. It takes about nearly an hour to tame. I hope this helps.It's torpor falls down really quickly so watch out for that. If you need help ask. My name is WakeyJakey

Quetz with a platform saddle 2x2 lowered foundations,and a fully enclosed box makes you immune to the attacks from the murder wombat
