What Fauna of the Stone Age: Meiolaniidae adds
Fauna of the Stone Age: Meiolaniidae introduces Owen’s horned turtle, a rare creature found in subtropical and tropical areas. The current collection focuses on this single species from the extinct Meiolaniidae family.
Adult males and females can be kept near one another and bred with suitable food. Feeding can be done by placing items on the ground or using a large trough, while the small trough is not supported.
The turtle provides a distinctive shell drop. Players can use it as a decorative object or turn it into a taxidermy model, giving the animal a place in museum rooms, collections, and themed builds.
Repeated breeding gradually changes the animals’ behavior toward the player: after enough generations, they stop attacking and eventually stop fleeing.
