CA Capybaras
CA Capybaras brings capybaras into Minecraft as a peaceful mob with four naturally spawning variants, breeding, and baby capybaras for Fabric.
What it does
Capybaras generate in suitable biomes without altering the vanilla gameplay around them. Each of the four variants has its own appearance, so exploring a world can turn up several different animals. Breeding produces offspring, and baby capybaras can be collected to add more variants to a player's set.
The mod includes a capybara spawn egg for creative mode, which helps map makers test placement and behavior. Capybaras work in single-player and multiplayer, and players can share them with friends on dedicated Fabric servers. Fabric API is required, and the mod is for Fabric only, with its latest file targeting 1.21.11.
Only the Fabric build for 1.21.11 is listed, released on 2026-06-22 on the alpha channel. It runs on the client and on the server, so both need it. The code is not open source and the project is under All rights reserved, with a public issue tracker for bug reports and feedback.
