Wild Pets
Description
Wild Pets is an open source minecraft plugin that allows players to tame any entity in the game so long as their configuration is enabled.
Works well with
Wild Pets is part of the survival flavour set of Dan's Plugins. These are companion plugins that suit the same kind of server and run side by side; Wild Pets does not depend on or call into any of them.
- Food Spoilage (SpigotMC, /dpm get foodspoilage): food goes bad over time.
- SimpleSkills (SpigotMC, /dpm get simpleskills): skills that level up as players play and unlock benefits.
- More Recipes (SpigotMC, /dpm get morerecipes): recipes for items that cannot be crafted in vanilla.
- Medieval Cookery (no SpigotMC page, no stable release yet): cooking recipes for custom foods, defined by the server owner.
Running a medieval roleplay server? The Medieval Roleplay Engine set lists the plugins for that.
Every plugin above is listed on dansplugins.com. Wild Pets is listed at dansplugins.com/resources/wild-pets and can be installed in game with Dan's Plugin Manager: /dpm get wildpets.
Installation
- Download the jar from this page (the download button links to the stable release on GitHub), or run /dpm get wildpets with Dan's Plugin Manager.
- Place the jar in your server's plugins folder.
- Restart the server.
Supported versions
Release 1.11.3 runs on Minecraft 1.19.4, 1.21.11, 26.2 and 26.3 (Spigot and its forks): it was started on a real server of each version, where it enabled cleanly, registered every command, stopped cleanly and started a second time on the data it wrote. Every release from now on is started on each version the plugin supports ( minecraft-versions.json in the repository) before it is published.
Release channels
This page mirrors the stable channel: the latest non-prerelease GitHub release. A dev pre-release built from every push to the default branch is available on GitHub for testing ( /dpm get --experimental). Details: Release channels.

Usage reporting
Wild Pets reports its usage by default: when the plugin is enabled, and each time one of its commands is used, it sends its name, its version and the command's name to https://trace.danielstephenson.dev, so it is known which plugins are actually in use. Nothing about players, worlds or IP addresses is sent, and neither is anything typed after a command.
Each event also carries a random server ID (the server-id line in plugins/trace/config.yml) so
servers can be counted rather than events. It identifies no person, account or IP address; delete
the line to get a new one.
To turn it off:
- for this plugin only: set usage-reporting.enabled: false in plugins/WildPets/config.yml;
- for every plugin on the server that reports to trace: set enabled: false in plugins/trace/config.yml (created on the first start);
- for the whole server process: set the environment variable TRACE_USAGE_REPORTING=off or DO_NOT_TRACK=1.
