Owl Jump Rope
by testlime
Owl Jump Rope adds a Fabric mob, a jumping owl with a rope attached, that spawns naturally near villages and can also be placed with a spawn egg in Creative mode.
What it does
The owl hops around the world on its own, and the rope is drawn as a visual part of the model, so it reads as a single creature rather than a separate prop. Natural spawns appear close to villages, where villager homes and workstations are, and the owl can be bred with wheat seeds. The jumping behavior is animated on the owl's model, and the mob uses its own texture.
When an owl is killed it explodes. The explosion uses the normal mob explosion behavior, so the damage it does to the world depends on the game rules set for the world. Because of this, the mod carries a safety caveat near villages, where the blast can reach buildings. Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21.11, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

What the author says
A silly Fabric mod that adds an owl with a jump rope to Minecraft. The owl hops around with its little rope, can be spawned with a spawn egg, appears naturally near villager villages, and has one very important safety issue: when killed, it explodes.
