Description:

Reworks the Wildlife mod originally made by Shirotora and Deliverator to turn it into a fully fledged Game Mode. Requires the Gathering Storm Expansion Pack, Kublai Khan & Vietnam New Frontier Pass, and the original Wildlife Mod. Since it is a Game Mode it has an icon at the setup screen to enable or disable it all (and the button also enables or disables the original mod)

Concept
I always liked the idea of the Wildlife mod both in Civilization V and Civilization VI because having animals roaming around is a great idea. However it was always sad that other than killing them there wasn’t much else to do with them, unlike Civilization: Beyond Earth which has a cool system for its aliens. This Game Mode attempts to enhance the experience by giving you three different routes to interact with Wild Animals: Hunting, making Exhibits for leisure, and Protecting them as local fauna.

It is hugely recommended you check the Civilopedia or this mod’s Steam Discussion for all changes and new policies. You can get the gist of it in the main pedia for the game mode. Otherwise you can try it out as you go. (Because of recent updates some of the information in the Steam Discussion might not be up to date when you check it, please be patient)

Recommended Mods

Since having icons is always nice, I recommend playing with Appeal, Loyalty and Prestige (Diplo VP) Font Icons

This mod was designed alongisde the Preserve Rework I made.

This mod is also designed to work alongside my new Garden District mod, granting the bonuses from the Preserve to that district as well.

To prevent marine units to get stuck in ice I also suggest playing with this mod.

Some of the functionality of Local Fauna is easier to check with Sukritact’s More City and Unit Info Stack, including name suggestions for your protected animals!

Phantagonist has also taken the hard work of translating this mod to Chinese and Japanese, please check here if you are interested: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2884998295&searchtext=

KNOWN ISSUES: The Bushmeat hard stock limit doesn’t show properly at the Top Panel; sadly I can’t fix that without making my mod potentially incompatible with any other mod that modifies the Top Panel, so I prefer leaving it as is for now.

NOTE: The mod is probably not compatible with any of the "Pet’s" mods as they allow you to use wild animals as units. Not 100% sure though.

Special thanks to Deliverator and Shirotora for the base Wildlife mod, to Lime for testing and some pedias and having fun with making Thule OP, Sukritact for helping clear some of my coding woes, and the VI helpline because they are always such nice people.
