Minecraft Bison

Three bison (plains, European and a very rare white one) with their calves. Calm in herds, but they charge if you push them.

  • They graze, sweep snow with their head, dust-bathe, rub against trees and fight head to head.
  • They raise their tail before charging if you hit them or hang around a calf, and sometimes bluff charge.
  • Breed with wheat, spawn in plains, meadows and temperate forests.
  • Craft bison steak and a wool hat that protects from freezing.

The variants.

Each variant has its own model, texture and biomes. Click one to show it on the plinth.

Add bison to your Minecraft server.

Bison come to your server in three variants: Plains Bison, European Bison and White Bison. They spawn on their own in the plains, sunflower plains and meadow, and their young grow into adults.

In total, 48 animations bring them to life in game. The pack also adds four items, such as “Bison Meat” or “Bison Wool Beanie”, with recipes for ItemsAdder, Oraxen, Nexo or MythicCrucible. Everything runs with ModelEngine and MythicMobs on Paper, from 1.21.4 to 26.3.
