Animal

For a more tutorialized explanation of the content described in this article, see Mobs/Animals on the Hytale Community Wiki.

Animals are NPCs which players can hunt, domesticate, and raise. They can also interact with each other.

Ambient creatures are small animals that give a sense of life to the world. These creatures are mostly passive and do not pose any threat to the player. Players are able to feed some of these animals.
