How ARK players tame and knock out the Thylacoleo: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

All that’s needed is to spot it, get a grappling hook, and a parachute, (just for good measure in the case you remove it) and pelt away at the Thyla! Tamed a level 7, 35, and 67 today using this method.

We just tamed 2 lvl 110 thylacoleo and trust me it requires a lot of narcs

Guys you better tame it,because I have 2 thylas in lost island called chleo and Chloe,since I tamed them,I became unstoppable! 1up-1like for Chloe and Chleo :)

The Snow owl is amazing at taming these, because the thermal Vision makes them a bright orange tiger on a grey tree

If you hit it it Will fall if it falls it cannot leap at you so use fliers the can carry it and go to your traps and drop it and tranq it

If your on Ragnarok, I suggest taming them in the desert, in my opinion its alot less dangerous b/c the thylas are on the ground. Make sure to go on a flying mount and watch out for rock golems and other bugs. The thylas are near the bottom of the desert.

I just started a nice world (PLAYED FOR A COUPLE WEEKS 2 AT MOST) with my cousin. We went scouting for a house spot, and we found a beautiful island. Can you guess where it was located? THE REDWOODS. So we decided to stay here. (we are level 46 and level 50, not very far) I was…

You will only find a Thyla when you don’t want to find one.

In other words, if you want to tame one they will be impossible to find. But if you want to get back home through the redwoods, you and your Pteranadon are F’d in the A.

Whoa whoa why does this guy prefer cooked meat rather that raw ???

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

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…

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.

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

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…

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…

A good way I found to find these is to go to the redwoods riding a parasaur and walk into the forest spamming the parasaur’s ability. It will alert you to a thylacoleo in a tree if there is one, just make sure to look up at the trees near you if it finds enemies. Also would…

Get 4 stone foundations 16 stone doorframes and 4 ramps and that should work

Or if you feel like it you can pick it up with an argy and drop it in

PS: in case you are new to the game they like cooked prime meat best
