Animals

Animals in MCON are extremely useful. They're the only evergreen source of food, and can be found at all times of the year. This makes them vital as a trading resource. And food.

Farming
As stated previously, animals are a great way to stock up on food during the winter months, when crops can't grow outside. You can store Animals inside our outside.

In order to attract animals, and make them follow you you need to have Wheat as the item in your hand. Make sure you don't get to far ahead of the animals you're attracting, or they'll stop following you. Once they're following you, you can lead them into a pen. That way they can't escape and by definition become 'yours'.
