The taming system is inherently flawed. Taming a horse is impossible unless you can manage to push it into a taming pen etc. The crux of the issue is requiring low hp to Bola; along with the bolas only lasting 1.5minutes.

i got elephants and bears so i don't really need horses. i just want to create my army of angry seagulls.

Horses aren't so bad with arrows. We tamed some wolves and we just chase down the horse, get it low, bola it from the wolf. Birds would probably be easier with a full enclosed pen. Haven't tried it myself yet but if you enclose it with walls and ceilings with a gate you should be able to aggro the bird inside and then close the gate. At least then it can't escape.

Ah yeah, see my issue is the latency for the most part.
Animals are completely desync'd from their actual location. The horses jump (aka teleport) half way across the island as soon as you manage to hit them.
