Ferrets are normally strictly carnivores. Good mod tho.
SPAZZ 4 Jul @ 11:37pm 
hows this mod going to work with the new "40 animals added to vanilla" sense they added pandas to vanilla but this mod ALSO adds pandas to the game. is there just 2 different types of pandas now? if this has been brought up before, Im sorry. whatever the case is you guys do great work thank you for everything!

Rimworld has desensitized me.

I looked at this mod and thought "oh with this mod I can hunt endangered animals and sell rare pelts for absurd prices, how cool."
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 31 May @ 12:02pm 
Yeah
DrBossWatson 31 May @ 12:00pm 
Just wondering if that was how that worked. I notice one do that and then it filled the food bar without using any of my food. So is it just a free food thing they can do from time to time?

This made me learn the Tasmanian Devils are endangered, and made me very sad :(. I know this is just some rimworld mod, but I think things like these really do help spread awarness, thank you so much for providing resources to help these animals!!

Uh, why would it?
DrBossWatson 28 May @ 7:58am 
I noticed the Pangolins will 'eat ants' does that clean up filth?
Head 19 May @ 8:54pm 
Great mod

The giant panda is a bear and it also eats meat.

I have only one minor criticism I've only now realized.

Giant Pandas should be omnivores. They occasionally eat carrion and their digestive systems are still built like carnivores. That is my only critique.

i love thylacine :steamhappy:
maviamadness 2 Jan @ 9:44pm 
pangolins are my favorite animal, I'm so happy you made this mod
Rosa 1 Jan @ 3:35pm 
how do I add animals from other mods to the "endangered" category, so they show up only in the event and can be released to the wild? I thought some animals from Megafauna could fit in well.

I know there's a setting to make all animals releasable, but it's not quite what I'm looking for.

You must be so fun at parties

Releasing them to the wild still doesn't work for me, even when I release them RIGHT next to the border.
maxoverload91 28 Oct, 2024 @ 1:22am 
Does the mod choose a random border to send them to or the closest border?
maxoverload91 28 Oct, 2024 @ 1:19am 
yeah, i'm having a similar issue to other people here with release to repopulate command - my guess is it's the result of a mod conflict but the best way to eventually ensure it works is to create an area right at the map border and assign the animals to that before releasing. Even then I usually have to reload multiple times before i get it to fire correctly

I think I figured out the issue with 'release to repopulate'. A number of things are supposed to happen in order:

1. First, you get a dialog popup for each animal you issued the order to, that you must confirm.
2. After hitting confirm, the animal's ownership is changed from your faction to wild.
3. The game gives the animal an order to leave the map, an activity called "Going to the wild".
4. Once the animal reaches the border of the map, they're despawned and THAT is when you receive the +goodwill faction awards.

This final order only successfully goes through if the animal has an active path to the border. If there's a door blocking them, like if you had the animal in a barn, the order fails to be issued and the animal will instead just wander around the map aimlessly. They will never despawn and you will never gain goodwill.

That seems like a bug to me - they should be periodically re-issued the command to exit the map, in case that first order fails for whatever reason.

Working fine here, no fix needed
Royal Coyote 11 Aug, 2024 @ 1:42pm 
Has the release to wild been fixed yet?
Doctor F4te 27 Jul, 2024 @ 4:06pm 
Releasing them into the wild no longer functions for me.
KILLDROID 21 May, 2024 @ 2:42pm 
I can't seem to release them back into the wild. They stay on the map. Sometimes they even stay in base.
PHAILKAISER 6 May, 2024 @ 9:56am 
Some minor typos:

•The information text that pops up when hovering over to repopulate has a typo.
To fix: \2366589898\Languages\English\Keyed\Misc_Gameplay.xml (Line 16)
"repupulate" --> "repopulate"

•Minor typo in giant panda description.
To fix: \2366589898\1.5\Defs\ThingDefs_Races\Races_Expanded_Endangered.xml (Line 634)
"herviborous" --> "herbivorous"

Other than that, great mod!

No.
Scavenger 19 Apr, 2024 @ 1:53pm 
is this not included in the Vanilla Animals Expanded mega pack?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 8 Apr, 2024 @ 12:05am 
Vanilla traders don't stock fertilized eggs
Squeakers 7 Apr, 2024 @ 3:48pm 
Meant just the eggs, not like a caravan animal. Fertilized ones too, so i could buy a few, ended up getting 6.
Squeakers 7 Apr, 2024 @ 3:47pm 
i managed to come across the rockhopper penguins, from some bulk goods trader. I don't know if that was supposed to happen?
Pascal Jansen 22 Mar, 2024 @ 7:29pm 
While I get they're rare I think an option to have them naturally spawn in the wild, just albeit extremely unlikely would make it feel more immersive and not just "hey these 2 guys spawned you should tame them". small difference but i think it changes a lot of the feel of it
Dan Dolem 6 Mar, 2024 @ 4:18am 
Can you harvest the Black Rhino horn and sell it at the market for great profit? (like you can sell elephant tusks) It would fit with brutal themes of Rimworld.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 1 Mar, 2024 @ 2:42pm 
Yes
Meo 1 Mar, 2024 @ 2:10pm 
can the spawning event happen in any biome?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 19 Feb, 2024 @ 1:36pm 
No, that has to be a mod conflict
IndyTransplant 19 Feb, 2024 @ 1:31pm 
Is it intended that as soon as I tame one of a pair, the other runs away? It seems every time I try to tame a pair I end up with only one.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 12 Feb, 2024 @ 6:01am 
Just search Youtube for it and prepare to laugh
Duke Flapjack 12 Feb, 2024 @ 3:26am 
Ah. OK!
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 11 Feb, 2024 @ 11:16pm 
Yeah XDD
Duke Flapjack 11 Feb, 2024 @ 6:33pm 
Is there any good reason why the Tasmanian Devils sound like Spongebob? Do they in real life?
Oskar Potocki  [author] 24 Jan, 2024 @ 3:43pm 
The mod is gone. Please, just forget about it for now.
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 24 Jan, 2024 @ 10:26am 
No, we are not interested in revisiting the concept and invite drama
Sunlight88 24 Jan, 2024 @ 10:25am 
Hey Sarg,
can't you create something similar but different?
Like an "Underground Animals" mod? Or "Animals of the Abyss" ;-}
With "Tunnel Spiders", "Subterran Bears", "Flying Underground Serpents",... LOL
...I miss the Cavanimals...
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 13 Jan, 2024 @ 11:07pm 
It's gone, doesn't exist anymore
Alacazain 13 Jan, 2024 @ 6:07pm 
What happned to "vanilla animals - Caves"? i can only find language patches in 1.4 for them (french and german).
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 2 Jan, 2024 @ 4:58am 
iirc infants count too
Sigourney Weaver in Alien4 2 Jan, 2024 @ 4:55am 
when I release animals to the wild, does it matter if they are fully grown or still infant animals (for the change of opinion of the other factions I mean)?
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 7 Sep, 2023 @ 11:14pm 
A bug
cycu 7 Sep, 2023 @ 2:22pm 
my colony started with a quagga and I wanted to restrict it to not be able to go inside as it leaves filth, but it doesn't show up in the animals tab. is this intended or a bug?
Theocratical Goblin 13 Aug, 2023 @ 9:56am 
The tooltip for releasing an animal to the wild has a typo. It says "Release this animal to the wild to repupulate and increase relations with tribal and outlander factions."
"Repupulate" should obviously be "repopulate"
Happy to help :)
tore 13 Jun, 2023 @ 12:31pm 
Repopulating seems to have no effect on Biotech-specific factions. Is this intentional?
