Miros Minks
by Galaxivorous
With Miros Minks, players tame large mink creatures that can be ridden, equipped and directed through simple item interactions on NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
Minks are rideable giant mink companions. They spawn in swamps and mangrove swamps, and a player tames one by offering raw fish, after which it can be bred. A tamed mink heals slowly over time, and cooked fish speeds that healing. Before a mink can be ridden it must be tamed and saddled.
Players can craft decorative garlands from leather in the leather crafting grid. Shift right-clicking with saddles or garlands equips them, and shift right-clicking with shears removes what is equipped. A stick toggles a mink between wander, follow and sit modes. Minks rise after being attacked, wander, and seek out and kill hostile mobs nearby. Lightning, falling, drowning and cactus damage do not hurt them.
Miros Minks is a Transportation mod, also listed under Mobs and Utility. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The files target NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, and the latest file is 1.0.7, published on 2025-09-16.

This mod adds a biomechanical creature called a Miros Mink for you to befriend and ride! Miros Minks don't have an inventory, but are a good ground and water mount for all-terrain traversal.
