NEW Mountain goats! (Capra)
This animal is a generic mix of all goats but mainly inspired by different types of Ibexes. The mesh itself is based off the "shinehorns", as i originally started doing a full rework on the stags to make this, I decided the shinehorns would be a more enjoyable experience for everyone. Essentially, this turned out to be how I imagine a shinehorn would look as an adult...

- Custom/reworked textures, Male and female meshes, idle and running animations. (The running animation will have a touch-up as its not quite perfect, but is okay for the time being)
- Can be found in mountain spawn regions. Feed them veggie cakes to tame
- Lucky Goat: Gives XP boost when you pet them
- Seed gatherer: Can passively gather seeds when wandering
- Bleeding attack: Headbutt attack gives causes bleeding/broken bones. Luckily the goats tend to be quite friendly.
- Custom saddle (will also receive some light tweaking to its weight paint)
- Female goats gives goat milk
- Colour regions: 0 = Main body, 1 = Eyes, 2 = Middle Back stripe, 3 = Horns, 4 = Underbelly, 5= Back outer stripe and details

Snow leopard rework
The snow leopard was the first creature that I added to wildlife back when I first started working on the mod. I remember feeling so accomplished just learning how to weight paint and add my own personal touches to the 3D models. Since then I feel like i have learned so much more and felt it fitting this would be the first creature to receive a much needed update.
