Animal Garden - Common Raven
Animal Garden - Common Raven adds a tameable raven mob that steals items from players and can be taught to fetch, follow or sit on command.
What it does
The mod adds a Common Raven mob that wanders forest biomes and eats seeds. Ravens can be tamed, healed and bred with food, and a tamed raven starts with 16 health and 4 attack damage, which it uses to protect its owner. Untamed ravens will also take items from players who click them. Aquarius Libs is required, and Animal Garden - Common Raven runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, for game versions 1.20.1 – 26.3, and the code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Behavior is set by right-clicking a tamed raven with a knowledge command, which cycles through three modes. In Wander mode the raven roams and may drop stolen items on the ground or near a hopper. In Follow mode it collects items near its owner and gives them over. In Sitting mode it stays in place until its mode is changed again. Spawn settings, including the chance of albinism or leucism and the eye colors, can be edited with JSON files, biome tags and biome modifiers on Forge and NeoForge, or through a resource pack and config file on Fabric.

This mod adds the Common Raven as a mob to your world. They will steal items from the ground and will drop them off after a while.
