Animal Garden - Red River Hog
Animal Garden - Red River Hog adds tamable Red River Hogs to savanna biomes, with feeding, nocturnal habits, and a sneeze-driven item drop.
What it does
Red River Hogs spawn in savanna biomes as tamable animals. They are omnivorous, so tamed hogs accept a breed food item and can be bred. Their activity follows a mostly nocturnal rhythm, with more movement around night, dawn and dusk and rest during the day. A hog can be made to stay in one place using a resting mode, and each hog shows its current behavior when inspected.
Wild hogs sometimes eat grass, using their strong snouts to turn over soil in search of seeds, and this can leave an item behind. Every so often a hog sneezes out a slime ball. Baby hogs always have a texture variant that differs from adults, and wild hogs can turn aggressive toward nearby creatures. Aquarius Libs is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.18.2 – 26.3, under All rights reserved.
