The Therizinosaurus Multiensis is a herbivore from the late cretaceous period and is a very aggressive creature, attempting to attack those that get too close to it.
Therizinosaurus are very deadly and can tear enemies to shreds with its razor sharp claws, destroying armor and thick dinosaur skin alike.
Most of the time they can be seen wandering without paying attention to other creatures around them unless threatened.
Should human approach them or if they stumble upon certain tames, the Therizinosaurus will immediately become aggressive and will start attacking.
A tamed Therizinosaurus is known for being a multipurpose dinosaur due to its ability to farm several resources in large amounts.
Dossier
Dossier Summary
In the dossier it seems to be a question how the Therizinosaurus is capable of staying populated due to its slow movement but apparently due to its power, it is capable of surviving and can even take on a Tyrannosaurus.
Therizinosaurus claws are shaped in such a manner that they are biological tools which give it the ability to be and adept resource farmer but not only is it good for harvesting but these become a powerful weapon against its enemies as well.
A Therizinosaurus is a very powerful mount and can be used for both battle and harvesting, making it a good all-around tame to have as it gives a large advantage to survivors that have managed to domesticate it.

3) Harvesting Upgrade
The Therizinosaurus farms in two different ways which are delicate harvesting and power harvesting and each of these may have a point spent on upgrading them every time it levels up.
Placing a point in either delicate harvesting or power harvesting will increase the resource gain by a certain percent.
4) Automatic Harvesting
Leaving the Therizinosaurus next to resources such as bushes or trees will make it use its attacks to automatically gather them.
If set on wander, the Therizinosaurus will attempt to harvest any resource nodes that it passes by which are applicable to its harvesting types.
Uses
Resource Farming
The Therizinosaurus is one of the best farming tames in the game due to its ability to harvest a large amount of resources as its basic attacks are affected by either Power Harvesting or Delicate Harvesting.
Having a Therizinosaurus can speed up the farming process for several resources and give tribes a large advantage, especially when one is tamed at an early time.
Damage Dealer
Not only is the Therizinosaurus exceptional when it comes to farming, but being a medium sized creature with sharp claws makes it capable of defending itself.
How to Tame Therizinosaurus?
The moment you attack or even get within a close range to the Therizinosaurus, it will begin to attack you which makes taming the dinosaur hard for those who come unprepared.
Trapping the Therizinosaurus is a good way to tame it which can be done by using stone gates and luring it inside.
Placing the stone gates to form a box shape will give you sufficient space to shoot the Therizinosaurus with ease and give you a good distance to remain unharmed.
Begin by either approaching or shooting the Therizinosaurus and head into the cage to lure it inside, causing it to follow you once it has become aggressive.
As you lure the Therizinosaurus inside the trap, head quickly through the spaces and run around to close the gate.
Once trapped, you may begin shooting at the Therizinosaurus and it will attempt to run around or attack you.
Be sure to keep a good distance to avoid getting hit by its deadly claws which can pretty much destroy your armor or even kill you.
