Familiar Fauna Mod 1.12.2 is a small mod that adds new mobs, including Deer, Butterflies, and Snails (With more to come!) to enhance atmosphere and exploration!
Mobs
Butterfly
- Butterflies are ambient mobs that spawn in warm, lush biomes. They appear in a variety of colors, and fly around in the air.
- Butterflies can be caught using Bug Nets and Bug Habitats. If you have an empty Bug Habitat in your inventory, the butterfly will automatically be placed in it when caught.
- Additionally, butterflies named using Name Tags will retain their name even when caught and placed in a Bug Habitat. The name will stay if you release them as well.
Spawn Biomes
Vanilla:
- Plains

Biomes O’ Plenty:

Deer
- Deer are passive mobs that generally spawn in temperate forest biomes, as well as some colder biomes. They randomly spawn as either a doe (Female) or buck (Male), and can sometimes appear naturally in their baby form.
- Deer are also very skittish, and will run away from nearby players.
- When killed, mature deer drop Venison, a meat that can be eaten raw, or cooked to restore additional hunger.
- Additionally, cow spawns are removed from biomes that deer spawn in, so it doesn’t feel redundant, and deer have a greater chance of spawning.
(NOTE: This feature can be disabled in the configuration settings!)
