How this tame works
- Land the next pet within 30s. After that it starts shedding 0.5% of its tame power every second, down to a floor of 30%, and that loss is permanent.
- If it bolts you lose 30% of the progress so far, so back off the moment it looks nervous rather than pushing one more pet.
- Each pet is a flat amount plus a share of what it needs, so the number of pets barely changes with level.

More about taming the Hyaenodon
Found throughout the ARKs, the Hyaenodon is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Misc group.
With 100% base Melee Damage, the Hyaenodon has solid damage output. At 175 base HP, the Hyaenodon is not particularly tanky. Stamina sits at 260 base, providing decent staying power. A base Weight of 170 means average weight tolerance.
As a tame, the Hyaenodon earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. Defeating one in the wild grants 18 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.04 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
