There are two methods of taming a Ceratosaurus in Ark Survival Ascended. The first is taming a baby Ceratosaurus, which is easy, and the second is taming an adult Ceratosaurus, which is difficult.

Ceratosarus baby taming method:

To tame a baby Ceratosaurus, you must first locate a Centasaurus with a baby around it. You can learn if it has a baby using a Spy Glass. Once you have located a Ceratosaurus, look at it through a Spy Glass, and you will see a heart symbol on it. Once all the criteria have been fulfilled and you've found a Ceratosaurus with a baby, you can kill the monster. The beast is potent, so use a lethal tame or a group of potent tame to kill it.

Once the parent Ceratosaurus has been killed, you can chase the baby, feed it meat, and start taming it. The beast will be tamed once the taming bar is full.

Adult Ceratosaurus taming method:

Taming an adult Ceratosaurus can be tricky. You must be well prepared before heading out to tame the monster. You will need a Hemogoblin cocktail, a Seratosaurus Saddle, Prime Meat, and a tanky tame that can take a lot of damage. Once everything is prepared, head out and locate a Ceratosaurus.

After locating an Ark Survival Ascended Ceratosaurus, you must make it go aggressive on you. Once it gets aggressive and starts attacking you, force-feed your dino the Hemogoblin Cocktail. Once the Cocktail is at work, you'll see pink clouds around your dino and a time on the top of the screen. Every attack the Ceratosaurus makes at your dino will increase its drunk percentage; you must wait until it reaches 100 and feed your dino the Cocktail if the timer runs out.

Once the Ceratosaurus is fully drunk, you can feed them Prime Meat to start the taming process. When the taming bar is full, you can get your hands on your very own Ceratosaurus. However, if the monster stops being drunk before you have tamed it, the beast will get aggressive and you must quickly return to your dino and repeat the process. The taming bar won't reset if the Ceratosaurus stops being drunk.
