How do we get/tame or whatever or is it not out yet?

Hi, you can only tame certain animals, and have to find the juvenile (young) one which follows the adult around. Buffalo, Moa and the newly added horsey beasts, sorry forgot what they are called now.
You need to kill the parent, then go to the juvenile and use the option that pops up to start taming it, it will follow you around after that, you need to have created a bed, aswell as food and water troughs at your base, take the animal there and tell it to stop following when you are at the bed\troughs. It will then eat and drink, and lie down when it needs to. You can check its status by interacting with the beastie. Once it has been fully tamed, you need to go claim it and assign a name, after that you can instruct it to follow or stray in its current location, and depending on the creature you can put a saddle, packs or even a wagon on it to either ride or load it up.
Latest patch has beefed this all up, Moa is bloody fast now, wasnt previously.
Horsey is between the buffalo and Moa in speed but has more inventory, Buffalo is for carrying lots of items.
Once thing to note, theres currently a bug when riding the horse which makes your character grow in size which will cause other issues with doorways etc, so stick to the other animals until next patch

Does your character shrink back to original size when they stop riding, or is it a permanent grow?

No, it can only be fixed by leaving prospect and return.

Devs have stated that there are no plans currently for Bears to be mounts, there is however a mod that allows you have one though

I thought the Horse would be good, but Moa's are so fast now the other mounts are irrelevant. However, I do have quite a few mounts within my walls and use them all at various times. I love the wood walls with spikes we can put up.
