Wolf Den Structure
by bushman59
Wolf Den Structure generates wolf dens in the wild, with a pack of wolves and loot inside each den.
What it does
The mod adds a small wolf den structure that spawns in the biomes where wolves already appear by default. Those biomes are the cold and forested ones listed in the mod's features, along with the savanna plateau and the wooded badlands. Each den uses the wolf type that suits its biome, so the wolves that appear match the surrounding landscape.
A den holds four wolves, three adults and one baby, and the adults can be tamed. Coarse dirt and unnatural mounds mark the spot, and digging through the brush of a suspicious gravel block can yield bones. Players may also find a pottery sherd, a howl pottery sherd, and a skeleton skull around 120 blocks from the den. The mod is server required and client optional, and it is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 26.1 – 26.2 under All rights reserved, not open source.
The first files were published on 2026-06-09 and the latest update is dated 2026-06-17. A Data pack version is also available for server platforms.
