Animals

A temperamental beast.

Wild pigs are one of the common animals found in the world, and are a source of red meat, hide, fat, and bones.

Spawning

Wild pigs will spawn in light levels 10 and higher, at temperatures between -10 and 28, in areas with as little as 0.45 rainfall. They spawn in groups with an average of around 3 animals.

Behavior

As with other animals, the piglets tend to stay close to the sows and the sows tend to stay around the males. The males will lay down and ignore the player unless provoked. Sows are just as likely to attack as to ignore players when provoked, while the piglets will just resort to flee on approach. Both boars and sows are intensely protective towards their offspring; they will become highly aggressive if there are piglets nearby. In spite of this, all boars flee from the player if their health gets low.

Domestication and Breeding

After being rounded up in a pen, boars can be fed using a large trough which can hold 8 portions of food. Sows will need to eat at least 10 portions before they’re ready to mate, and after 600 hours (25 in game days) they will bear a litter of 4 to 6 piglets (with each offspring having a 25% chance of being male and a 75% of being female). This is important to consider when breeding multiple females simultaneously. After giving birth, sows will enter a cooldown period before they can breed again, which can last from 6 to 11 days. Once the piglets are born, it takes 158 hours (5 in game days) for them to become full adults. Boars will become passive to the player and piglets will lose their fear after 10 generations. From the 3rd generation, the player can instantly kill boars with a cleaver and boars and sows will no longer be aggressive around their offspring.

Food
