Animal Garden - Bull Shark
Bull Shark adds an aggressive underwater creature that roams warm oceans, lukewarm oceans and rivers, and it is rare enough to make finding one feel like treasure.
What it does
The bull shark hunts by a hidden hunger bar. Each one spawns with a random hunger value between 0 and 5 minutes, and the value counts down over time. A shark with hunger above three minutes stays in slow mode and bites only what happens to be near, restoring 30 seconds of hunger per bite. Once hunger runs low, it switches to normal mode, where it keeps leaving the target it chose until it gets a good bite, and then to fast mode, where it attacks everything, slamming and biting any target until it is fed. Damaging a shark drops its hunger to zero and sends it on a rampage. Its bites also restore a bit of the player's health, and it leaves a pool of blood behind.
Dropped meat and fish items can hand-feed a shark, which restores its hunger. The mod is for players who explore the ocean, and for server owners who want a predator that changes how the water feels. Aquarius Libs is required, and the mod runs on the client and the server, so both need it. Files are published for 1.20.1 and for every release 1.21.1 – 26.3, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Three behavior modes
Slow, normal and fast modes change how the shark chooses its prey, from passive bites to attacks on anything nearby.
Hidden hunger bar
The shark's hunger is not shown on screen, and it drains over time, so its mood has to be read from its behavior.
Prey selection
The shark prefers items over living targets while searching, though it can still lock onto a living target.
Hand-feeding
Dropped meat and fish items feed a hungry shark, letting players calm it down after it turns hostile.
