This mod adds lions as tamable animals to your world.
You can find them in the savanna biomes.
(In forge you can change this and other spawn settings
by editing the json files in the data -> biome tags and biome modifier folders
or via resource pack
and in fabric there is a config file for it)
You can tame them with any food item. (10% chance per tries)
If untamed then it will sometimes attack mobs around it, except if its a lioness.
When they roar then every mob near except lions will try to run away.
They also eat meat and fish items from the ground and doing so will restore their health.
Resting and attacking will restore its health a little bit too.
Only male and female can mate and baby lions wont have a mane.
Babies will follow adults and lionesses will follow male lions.
Male Lions have 15 body color variants, while females have 5 because they dont have manes,
and they also have eye color variants.
They have 3 type of behaviors (aquarius libs 1.0.1+ shows message when their owner is changing their behavior)
-wandering (wanders around, if tamed then it will wander around the block you put it into wandering mode)
-resting(stays in place)
-following (follows owner)
