Hyaenodons are very smart. They will determine if the reward is worth the risk. Their opportunistic behavior means they'll only fight you if you're injured, although they will be more inclined to attack if their numbers are great. As a pack animal, they have a pack leader identified by an orange glow on its back.
Taming[]
Hyaenodons use the SurvivalPlus Multi-Phase Taming approach. Note that the vanilla restrictions still apply - if they are in a pack and the leader is nearby taming is not possible. It is possible to split up the pack by scaring the others away or killing them.
