This mod is a very simple mod that only adds one new mob to the game, the tanuki!
Tanukis spawn in bamboo jungles and cherry groves. They are passive and don't have any unique drops. They can be both tamed and bred with any cooked meat item. Their bandana can be dyed to change its colour.
The tanuki is based on vtuber Tanukiyomi's design with her permission. Go check her out!
