These things will leap off trees, and scare the shit out of you.. I've lost an argent by one cause it glitched and bugged him out when pinning it down
Thylacoleo
The Thylacoleo is a large, powerful mount that can climb up trees and pounce on its enemies.

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.
Today I was just chilling looking for something that could help me beat the manticore and I literally saw a white thyla and I was so lucky that it was trapped in one of the rib cage structures then I got like my club and I smacked it in the face then it went down I gave it raw…
Today I was just chilling looking for something that could help me beat the manticore and I literally saw a white thyla and I was so lucky that it was trapped in one of the rib cage structures then I got like my club and I smacked it in the face then it went down I gave it raw meat but then I noticed it it cooked meat then I gave it cooked meat and it was almost waking up so I force feed it nicroberries then I finally tamed it you can also try using doorways stone doorways (I think) or you could use normal structures that the game generates
Don't do it
I tried to tame a level 40 with my 174 argy, I died so I came back on my 134 pt, it died, I died. I came back again on my 202 frog, my argy died and I finally knocked the thyla out. A raptor came and butchered me. I quit before I knew if my frog made it
Thylas are really hard to tame and they prefer cooked stuff insted of raw if you use cooked prime meat thylas can still take over 150-300 bio toxins depending on level I recomand you guys building a spike wall around it after knocking it so it dosent get ambushed and keep…

Bring 1-3 small bear traps, tranq it and make it chase u to the traps, then shoot at the head with all youve got. Also watch out for terror birds
Thylacoleos wake up kinda fast when cryo sicked
I was riding my snow owl to find the tree boy, and my sister used her argy to pluck tree boy out of the tree :) brought him to safety used my net to trap and bring him down, with hella narco and like 60 cooked meat I have myself a lvl 55 Tony the Tiger :)
A trap I have used to trap a thyla is a I like to call a box trap. All you need is four fence foundations, a large bear trap, and 16 door frames. First put the bear trap down, Then on all sides place a fence foundation then put the door frames on the fence foundations ( two…
A trap I have used to trap a thyla is a I like to call a box trap. All you need is four fence foundations, a large bear trap, and 16 door frames. First put the bear trap down, Then on all sides place a fence foundation then put the door frames on the fence foundations ( two doors high, and remember to leave one side open to lure in the thyla) then let your desire thyla into a trap, and when it gets stuck in the bear trap, close in the side that's open. And then of course knock it out and feed it with its desired food. This trap works well with other creatures as well. I hope this helped- ZXDragno
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..…

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 ;)
cheapest trap i've found is to place a large bear trap and lure em in, then while they're trapped place as many wooden billboards as you can around them so they're stuck once the bear trap breaks
You wanna have 2 Dino's 1raptor 1parsaur put parsaur on turret mode it will mark the Thylecoleo and then shoot run away from the Thylecoleo on the raptor place a large beartrap and jump over then trap it with stone strucers then knock it out
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)
A really random way to knock this out is to use a kapro to drain its stamina, let the thyla harvest a corpse to instantly regenerate any health it lost, then you can just tranq while walking backwards and it should eventually be knocked out.
If you have a tribemate on a Parasaur you can easily locate thylas, when you find one shoot it once to knock it off the tree and lead it back to a trap. From there it’s just tranq and tame.
As an Xbox player it took me 50 cooked meat and 30 narc to tame . I hate that everyone on here says it takes thousands . I WAS ON ARKPOC . - Holland
A good safe way to find one is to be on a flying tame in the desert as they can't grab you off trees. On Rag the best areas are from 60 55 to 90 70 and for Scorched Earth anywhere around green ob works.
They are fast
Have a good dps
THEY can climb walls and trees
One of the best land creatures of all time
They are the best to collect chitin
You should tame it
Tip:- the best way to tame it if you have a dragon just find it and pick it up to a clear area
Very useful I suggest taming these early game best way to tame them is with a boomerang and a cliff make sure you have narcotics but don't forget they need cooked food
I died 12 in a row trying to tame one I hate this thing
Finding one at the edge of the forrest and letting it chase you to the beach makes taming way easier.
