Features:

Those who are able to catch a pair of bovines can domesticate them, and the larger species can be milked, with different species requiring different amounts of food and pregnancy length.

Most species have a unique pelt drop and horns as well that can be used to craft hide, taxidermied full body and head mounts.


On occasion a fly covered bovine carcass will spawn, preventing bovines from spawning in the area around them. They have a chance to spawn when a player first arrives in an area or when all bovines have been killed off from the area, allowing players to locally wipe out bovines. Destroying the bovine carcass will allow more bovines to spawn again and some carnivores and scavengers may destroy them as well, so if you want bovines spawns prevented in an area protect these carcasses.

FAQ
Q: How do I domesticate the animals in this pack?

A: Get a male and female adult of a given species within 10 blocks, wait until the female is ready to mate and feed her the sufficient number of portions and the male at least one. Different species require different amounts and can be found in the entity file under the multiply section. Animals can be fed either by dropping items on the ground or by using the large trough. The small trough is not supported at this time due to patching formats. Each species diet can be found in this mod's description or in their entity file under the diet section. After 10 generations, entities stop attacking the player and after 10 generations they will no longer flee the player. Only the mother's generation matters for progressing generations.


Q: Why so many animal packs? Can't you make one giant one?

A: The combined size of this series exceeds the Mod data base's file upload size limit and therefore could not be hosted on this site, making it extremely difficult for servers to use. What's more, I don't know just how large certain clade file sizes will get as new features come out and I want to ensure they don't need to be split in the future, as that may cause considerable server issues. Whenever mod packs are implemented, or if there are other resources for creating a more organized bundle, I will do so.



Q: Is this mod safe to add and remove to an existing world?

A: Yes, this mod series is safe to add and remove. Items from this mod that have been placed will be invisible or appear as question blocks if the mod is removed but can be safely broken.
