Stop Killing Turtles

by BayTurtleKing · on Modrinth

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Data pack only.

Minecraft 26.1–26.1.2Newest
Minecraft 1.21.7–1.21.8
Minecraft 1.21–1.21.1

⬇ Download for 26.1–26.1.2 ⬇ Download for 1.21.7–1.21.8 ⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Stop Killing Turtles

Sea turtles (and all turtles, except Minecraft only has sea turtles) do not deserve to die.

This datapack enforces the rule that sea turtles should not be attacked, and lets everyone know that the blood of sea turtles, is on your hands.

When you attack a sea turtle, tons of horrible potion effects will be applied to you.

I don't recommend finding out for yourself ... Or there WILL be consequences.
