Animal Domestication

Domestication turns species knowledge and successful interaction into animals that can join the village and support ongoing care or production.

PC / Global, current release
WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Species habitats across the valley; each animal’s own entry determines where and how to find it.

Work from the animal’s species entry instead of approaching every wild herd the same way. First learn the species, then meet its specific habitat and interaction conditions. Once domesticated, invite it to the village if you want to begin caring for it there.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Animal observation and domestication progression available in the village.
  • The target species’ habitat and interaction conditions.
  • Any food or interaction item specified for the species.
  • Village habitat space if you plan to invite the animal.
  1. Choose a target animal and read its species entry for habitat and domestication conditions.
  2. Travel to its listed habitat and locate the species there.
  3. Observe the animal until its species knowledge is registered.
  4. Prepare the food, tool, or interaction required by that species.
  5. Meet the listed conditions rather than chasing or interacting at random.
  6. Confirm the domestication result in game before moving on.
  7. Invite the animal to its village habitat if you want to care for it and pursue its products.

Farming tips

  • Species conditions differ; use the target animal’s entry to plan each attempt.
  • Separate learning the species from completing domestication: observation is a prerequisite, not proof that the animal is ready.

Repeat, collect and use

Domestication is a limited success for each animal you bring into the village; finding and working with other wild animals can be repeated for additional species, subject to their conditions.

Common mistakes

  • Using one species’ method for another: check the target’s own conditions.
  • Approaching before observing: complete species knowledge first.
  • Domestication without room for the animal: prepare the village habitat if you intend to invite it.

When to stop or switch

Stop searching after you have domesticated the target and confirmed whether it is joining the village; switch species if its habitat or conditions are unavailable today.
