5.1 Gaia
Gaia controls the wild animals on the map. These include:
- Cows
- Goats
- Giraffe
- Zebras
- Lions
- Water buffalo
- Chickens
- Hippos
- Monkeys
- Bears
- And many more!
It is advised to attack larger creatures with multiple villagers (around 5). Animals like pigs, goats, and cows can be tamed, and their food count will increase over time. It's strategic to consume untamable animals first, saving the fattened ones for later. Goats and pigs can provide up to 300 food.
