Tips & Strategies
Idk why everyone says 9 stone foundation for a 3×3, you don't need the middle one because it can't bury so it's not gonna make your trap any less effective and it saves you a foundation. If they say stone wall, what they mean is stone doorframe; it's cheaper and you can shoot through it and the yuty can't fit through any easier than walls. You can also skip like every other unit on the perimeter from having any walls since the yuty is chonk and nothing will really attack it through these gaps since it's an Apex predator. Personally I prefer using stone fence foundation in the perimeter of a three by three and one regular foundation for the stairs which aren't attached but close enough. Saves a lot of resources which is useful for making these in bulk.

How to build a trap
What you need:
9 stone foundations,
18 stone doorframes
4 wooden ramps
6 stone walls
How to build it
First, make sure you build the trap in a safe-ish area to make sure that nothing super powerful comes and either kills you or the Yuty while it’s trapped
Place the foundations in a 3x3 shape
Place 6 doorframes on each side except for one
Place the 6 walls on the remaining side
Place the ramps on the regular wall side so that the Yuty can walk into the trap
How to tame it
Find the Yuty, kill all of its carnos, and then lead the Yuty into the trap
I recommend that you use a wyvern for this because they are not affected by the roar
Keep shooting tranqs at it till it’s knocked.
It’s torpor doesn’t drop very fast, so you don’t need too many narcs
Use whatever kind of food you want
I hope this helped! Happy taming
I just tamed a level 100… he made my ptero leave me, so I killed his friends and knocked him out. He woke up feeling obligated to me for some reason…
At lvl 140, it took 50 minutes to starve tame with 25 mutton at taming effectiveness 97.3% (+68lvl).
About 30 tranquil darts with a 210% longneck rifle and 10 trans arrows with a 241% cross bow.
How to tame yutyrannus: run in the opposite direction and use a bola on your friend
It's over Anakin, I have the high ground!
You underestimate my power.
Don't try it...
Yutyrannus screaming
It really is that simple though, they can't reach you or your flier on a big enough rock, so if you don't want to make a trap you can just shoot down from a rock or cliff once the carnos are dealt with. Be ready for a goose chase once it starts running.
X creatures take 3x the tranqs required to tame a normal one.
It kinda looks like an Allo with feathers. Kinda cute. Ima go pet it, and holy sh*t it's not cute! Run for your life!
Surprisingly you can net the yutyrannus (saved me many times)
All you need to do is just get the high ground
You can literally trap this guy using 4 stone dinosaur gateways,2 gates and a large bear trap. I tamed 2 this way and trapped 3.(Do not take important stuff if you don't want to use bear trap cause you'll have to sacrifice to close the other door
