About this Mod

Animalia

Animalia is a Vanilla+ Minecraft mod focused on making the world feel more alive and diverse through new animals while staying true to the style and atmosphere of vanilla Minecraft.

Each animal is designed to feel like a natural part of the world, with its own behavior, movement, and personality, making encounters during exploration and survival more interesting and memorable.

What the mod adds

Animalia adds new animals to Minecraft with smooth animations and more detailed behavior while preserving the Vanilla+ visual style.

The mod aims to make the world's wildlife feel more alive and diverse, so that every animal feels like a meaningful part of the environment rather than just another mob.

Current Animal: Jaguar

Jaguar

The first animal added to Animalia is the jaguar — a calm and confident predator that feels like a natural part of Minecraft’s wilderness.

It explores the world around it, reacts to players, and behaves differently depending on the situation. Most of the time the jaguar remains peaceful, but a hungry predator can become far more dangerous.

Planned Features

The roster of animals in Animalia will continue to expand in future updates.
