When on the plains (like in the swamp) I tend to carefully recon out my approach. When I see lox (remember now they spawn on ground one has just passed over) I slowly approach and throw down 2 - 3 stacks of 3 cloudberries to tame. This allows me to see any fulings & deathsquitos in the vicinity, even if I end up not taming the lox. Always use the unequip/equip weapons button around lox, as they will chase forever if you have weapons equipped, with no weapons equipped they give up the chase rather quickly. A quick sprint then crouch with no weapons equipped usually loses their agro very quickly.
