More about taming the R-Snow Owl
Tame the R-Snow Owl using knockout methods. Use the Chain Bola or a Bear Trap to immobilize it before sedation. The best food is Superior Kibble, which provides the fastest taming. Raw Mutton also works if kibble is unavailable.
Sedate with Tranq Arrows from a Bow or Crossbow, or use a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts. The process takes about 8 minutes with Superior Kibble. Use the calculator below for your settings.

It also takes +120% damage from Instant HurtDinos and +55% from Melee DmgMetal RaidDino attacks. Conversely, it has a -50% damage reduction from Melee WithProjectileImpactFX and Ranged Turret attacks. Focus on dodging spike-based defenses.
The head has a damage multiplier of 2x, making headshots effective for faster knockout. Use precise aiming to exploit this hitbox zone.
