Mystical Wildlife
by Lykrast
Lykrast's Mystical Wildlife adds imaginary animals that spawn in different biomes, and players can breed, brush and harvest them for food and materials.
What it does
The mod populates worlds with imaginary animals, from oversized beetles and large furry lizards with their own models and sounds to smaller creatures that appear in flowery or magical biomes. Each animal type spawns in its own biome, which makes biomes feel more distinct. Several animals can be bred with items such as sugar, vanilla seeds, bread, fish or rabbit, and they drop meat when killed, in the way farm animals do. Some creatures also yield extra resources when brushed with a new Brush tool.
Mystical Wildlife is open source under the MIT License and is published for Forge only, on 1.12.2 and 1.14.4, with 1.3.4 for 1.14.4 as the latest file. The server and every player need the mod installed. Spawn rates can be configured on 1.12.2, and public links exist for the source code, issue tracker and wiki.
