DISCORD
OVERVIEW
Caves & Creatures is a mod that adds three cave biomes full of new creatures you can bring home as pets. With 23 new mobs, including an ancient axolotl species called “Salotls” that has over 140 variants, each biome brings its own personality and fun. If I include all variants, the total number of mobs added in this mod would be 185 mobs! Almost all mobs are now tamable and can be made to sit/wander/stay wih the use of a stick. With more being added frequently, there is always something new to explore! So far this mod adds over 50 new plants! This mod can be paired with other cave exploration mods to create a giant revamp of Minecraft’s caves. While this cave mod is more focused on pets and animals, future biomes may have other focal points. Download and explore it yourself to see what you can find!
Ancient Lush Caves
The Ancient Lush Caves is a sandy and green tropical cave with beautiful blue water, very similar to lush caves. However, Ancient Lush Caves has sandy lakes, mud ponds, tar pits, hybrid creatures, and more! Tar pits are dangerous—don’t fall in! This cave currently has 8 different mobs. These mobs include Frogbats, Tiger Cubs, Spider Snakes, Meganeura, Ophthalmosaurus, Liopleurodon, Jaucans, and Salotls. There are also 20 new plants you can collect from this cave biome! You may wanna bring milk buckets as the Spider Snakes have a paralytic venom. Most tamable creatures can be tamed with heart fruit or glow berries for now, besides the Liopleurodon, which requires the meat of a Ophthalmosaurus to tame it.

Deserted Depths
The Deserted Depths is a cave full of sweets and treats. Got a sweet tooth? Well, this will be your new favorite place! In this biome, you will find lots of food, colorful blocks similar to concrete sand called “sugar sand,” and various creatures with a sweet twist. Sugar sand, although similar to concrete powder, is more vibrant and doesn’t fall like concrete powder. This can be very useful for colorful ceilings or other builds! This cave currently has 9 different mobs, including Sweet Sabers , Candy Corn Mice, Ice Cream Crabs, Chocolate Chipmunks, Sugar Skull Snails, Swiss Roll Snails, Elephant Animal Crackers, Popturtles, Candy Mouse Lemurs, Ice Cream Carp, Other Chipmunks, and Salotls.

MOD REQUIRES FEATURE RECYCLER TO WORK WITH ALEX CAVES
OVERVIEW
Caves & Creatures is a mod that adds three cave biomes full of new creatures you can bring home as pets. With 23 new mobs, including an ancient axolotl species called “Salotls” that has over 130 variants, each biome brings its own personality and fun. If I include all variants, the total number of mobs added in this mod would be 185 mobs! Almost all mobs are now tamable and can be made to sit/wander/stay wih the use of a stick. With more being added frequently, there is always something new to explore! This mod can be paired with other cave exploration mods to create a giant revamp of Minecraft’s caves. While this cave mod is more focused on pets and animals, future biomes may have other focal points. This mod has been two years in the making as a solo project. Download and explore it yourself to see what you can find!
The rest of this overview will be split into 5 categories, with the three biomes being the first three, Salotls being the fourth, and The Collector being the fifth. This is a solo project, expect bugs. With that being said, If you comment the issue I will work to get it fixed asap!
This project is not done so expect many updates going forward.
Feedback on mobs health is appreciated. Is it too high? Too low? Leave a comment and let me know! MADE WITH MCREATOR
