About this project

What does Fauna Unleashed add?

Fauna Unleashed

Bring the wild back to Minecraft. Fauna Unleashed adds 21 fully animated animals (plus a rare wounded deer you can nurse back to health), each with its own habitat, behaviour, food, drops and sounds. Lions hunt zebras at dusk, elephant herds defend each other, hippos guard their rivers and raccoons raid your chests at night.

Features

  • 21 new animals with smooth GeckoLib animations
  • Herds, packs and loners: every species lives the way it should
  • Predators and prey: lions, snow leopards and crocodiles actually hunt
  • Babies and breeding with species specific foods
  • New drops: venison, game meat, crab meat, cookable in furnace, smoker or campfire
  • Warning behaviours: gorillas beat their chests, brown bears stand and roar, snakes rear up
  • Tameable toucan that can ride on your shoulder
  • Shearable Andean llama with decorative woven tassels
  • Heal the wounded deer with a craftable Herbal Salve and earn experience
  • All spawn eggs in their own creative tab
  • Sneak tip: skittish animals and warning animals stay calm if you approach crouching
