Description

This mod adds more than a hundred creatures from past ages, as much as 500 million years ago and as little as 300 years ago.
It all begins with a single block: the fossil ore. When you mine it, you'll get one fossil from one of the 13 eras that span from the present to the very origins of life.

With a little set up, you'll be able to extract DNA from these fossils, cultivate and embryo and incubate it.

Each incubated embryo can be hatched into a baby creature, that will take some time to raise.

But once you have two adult creatures, you can breed them!

If you have Patchouli installed, you can access a step by step guide on all these features. Geckolib is necessary for rendering.
The first release has 10 creatures for each era, making a total of 130 creatures. For the future, I plan on polishing existing features and, of course, adding new creatures from my own list and from suggestions!
