== Description ==
[[Basic Knowledge|Wurm]] is full of '''animals'''/'''creatures'''/'''monsters'''--: some harmless and others quite dangerous.
== Spawning and behavior ==
* There are basically two types of creatures in Wurm: normal animals which can be [[Animal taming|tamed]] (and are usually based on real-world domesticated animals) and monsters which cannot be tamed but can soemtimes sometimes be [[dominate]]d.
* Some creatures [[spawn]] in [[lair]]s or on specific kinds of tiles. Some can also be [[animal husbandry|bred]] by players.
* Most creatures like to avoid civilized areas like villages and starter towns and will have a reduced spawn rate near such areas.
* Some animals have various [[animal conditions|conditions]] that affect their strengths and weaknesses.
* Bred animals can have [[Animal_husbandry#Traits|traits]] that normally spawned animals do not have.
* Most animals have [[age]]s of young, adolescent, mature, aged, old, or venerable. Some animals die well before reaching venerable, while others can have very long lives.
* Animals can be normally fed, fat, or [[starving]]. Starving animals will not give any meat when [[butchering|butchered]], and some animals can die of starvation.
* Hunger is the primary and quite rare reason that a creature may go aggressive, attack, and kill another that is hitched or destroy the barrier protecting said animal and then kill it.
** Carnivorous animals or mobs will attack certain non-hostile animals in the wild when hungry.
==Leading==
* You can lead many types of creatures without taming the creature. Leadable creatures include all [[Animal taming|tamed animals]] as well as those listed in the table below.
* Only the commander of a [[Ship|boat]] or [[Carts|cart]] can lead animals. Passengers are not able to lead animals.
* You cannot attack an animal that you are leading.
* Attempts to lead animals across a server line will result in them becoming disconnected from the leading player and left at the crossing point as that player successfully crosses to the next server. It is therefore recommended that players use [[creature cage|creature cages]] for the purpose of moving animals across server lines.
* Some animals, after being lead and/or tamed, can be used as [[mounts]] on land or on water. Use of animal mounts is dependent on [[body control]] and taming or dominating skill.
==Notes==
* Creatures can be [[examine]]d to determine their [[wound]]s, if any. Look at their [[Inventory#Body|equipment]] to see the body with wounds.
* Some unique creatures will drop items when killed, some of which are highly valuable.
* All corpses (except humans) maximum weight is 50.00 kg.
* For more rare creatures see: [[Uniques]], [[Valrei creatures]], [[Rift creatures]]
