About this Mod
Wild Lands is a vanilla-styled biome and wildlife mod, aiming to expand the vanilla world, as well as add to it. This ranges from adding new plants and animals to existing biomes, and adding fully fleshed out new biomes, such as the Bayou! The mod aims to feel very vanilla in what is added, with many interesting aspects and behaviors for many of the added animals!
Current content includes:
2 new biomes
11 new entities
3 new trees
And more!
The added biomes include the following:
Burnt Forest
Bayou
The added animals include the following:
Catfish - A solitary fish that will avoid the player
Alligator - A large crocodilian. As a baby, they will avoid players and can be bucketed. As adults though, they will give a warning hiss before attacking.
Crabs - Crabs will generally avoid the player unless they are a fighter variant. If they have a large claw, they will attack the player instead.
Frogs (Pre-1.19) - They will hop around, and like to sit on lilypads. Their babies are tadpoles, and will suffocate outside of the water.
Hammerheads - Hammerheads will circle around their prey before striking. They will target undead mobs if they can.
Anchovy - A small fish
Octopus - Octopus will blend in with the ground beneath them if they get scared. When attacked, they will shoot up and swim away.
Sea Lion - Sea Lions will swim out to sea and catch fish. If fed anchovies, they can drop their item for the player to pick up.
Jellyfish - Jellyfish will swim mindlessly through the ocean. If the player gets too close, they may be stung, which will cause damage while the player remains in the water.
Grizzly - Grizzlys will actively look for berries, salmon, and honey to eat. After eating enough food, they will go into hibernation.
