Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a thylacoleo? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a thylacoleo.
Easiest way to tame: make a dino pen, pick one up with an argy, put it in the dino pen then follow along with a basic taming process (knock it out, feed it). Make sure you have lots of narcotics on you!
Best thing about them: they can climb up really steep hills and they can potentially do lots of damage and can be fast.
Where to find: most commonly found on trees (they will be hanging upside down, high up on large trees) in the redwood forest areas (mainly on The Center) or I find lots of them in the Ragnorok desert.
Very good tame! They're like pet tigers.
To tame just fly around redwoods, wait for a thyla to jump on you and then net it. (Bring around 15 nets) after this it should be easy to tranq it out.
Rip cole the valiant brave and loving thyla that protected his friend till the end 😭😭😢😢😢 these were coles final words
u are the best friend a thyla could ask for I love u owner goodbye
RIP cole
Build a stone trap that has 6 foundations or more with doorframes. They can’t climb doorframes so don’t use walls (I’m not sure if they can climb walls in the wild but just in case). Use an argent or something that can pick it up, drop it in the trap, knock it out with whatever you have. Be careful and bring lots of narcotics because there torpor goes down really fast. Congratulations you now have a Bear cat Thyla thing!
Do not ride your flyer pet near to the forest wood because the thylacoleo can kill you easily
If you are going to tame this thing, BRING A MILLION NARCOTIC! This thing will wake really quickly like the Therizinosaurus, so be prepared
When taming try to shoot one with tranqs near the edge of the redwoods then lure them after you into a bear trap
OK get a wood billboard and place it in front of a thylo tranq the head ez
I read that you can’t get knocked off on a quetzal on this thing.THAT IS 100% WRONG.
Shoot it out of its tree, then pick with argie and drop it into a trap/hole. Cook up some mutton beforehand.
Bred a slick navy blue and silver mutation.
Many surfaces are considered 'vertical' for it to climb, including the southern side of Volcano on The Island, from which you can then pounce back into the redwood, which is the biggest leap I've found yet
Rip cole,you will be missed 🪦😢
Whoa whoa why does this guy prefer cooked meat rather that raw ???
Hi I’m a huge mobile player and just please put this in mobile it would be like a dream come true
This boys and girls is a Drop bear a vicious and deadly animal native to australia
Theese things are actually marsupials.
Prefer cooked meat,don’t use raw meat,better cook it
I saw one and used my tank argy as bait and then went in from behind with my pulmonoscourpius, knocked it out fast.
The Snow owl is amazing at taming these, because the thermal Vision makes them a bright orange tiger on a grey tree
OK boys and girls, you see this creature right here^ yep that b*****d is the devils own spawn.. catching it on the island is pure hell. (Much easier to catch on genesis 2 with bear traps) but I digress.
I would suggest having a fast flying mount like a pteranadon for this.. fly above the redwood trees area towards the mountains to build your pit trap. (Make it bigger if you want to make it multipurpose.)
4× stone foundations, stone Dino gate, 12× stone walls (make one a stone door wall for quick in out escaping), and 4× stone ramps.
From just outside of the redwoods you can spot them in trees.. DO NOT FLY OR RIDE PAST THEM, UNLESS YOU WANT TO HAVE A BAD DAY. When you see one from OUTSIDE the redwoods that you want just shoot it once to aggro it over to you.. (when it's on the ground it shouldn't be able to rip you off your mount). Fly over to aggro it into your trap. Voila, tranq it in safety ;)
If you are playing on Ragnarok, they are easier to tame in the desert biome, very common around lat 86, lon 63.
