Template:InfoboxMob A Big Cat is a land mob that is either hostile or neutral. They can be found in a variety of biomes. There are many different species of Big Cat.
Spawning Note: if you spawn in one Big Cat, all of the other Cats around it are going to be of the same type. Either go far away to get a different species, or kill the first Big Cat that was spawned.
Big Cats drop Big Cat Claws when killed. Tamed Big Cats will also drop their Medallion upon death.
Overview
BigCats™ replaced the Lions that were part of the initial release for the Mo' Creatures mod.
Besides Lions, they now include other species, including both male and female Lions, Tigers and White Tigers, Cheetahs, Panthers, and Snow Leopards.
Behavior
Female Lions (Lionesses) and Tigers will always attack the player when in range. Male Lions, Panthers, Cheetahs and Snow Leopards will only attack the player if they are hungry or if the player attacks them first. Big Cats will attack other Mobs when hungry. Once they eat or kill their prey, they will be satisfied and will not be aggressive until it is hungry again.
Big Cats of different breeds will fight amongst themselves. This includes adult Big Cats attacking cubs. Tamed Big Cats won't attack each other.
Big Cats are attracted to Raw meat, such as Raw Fish or Porkchops that is on the ground, and they will eat when there is any food nearby to regain health. Tamed Big Cats will also eat any Raw meat that was dropped onto the ground.
Breeds
Lions
Unlike all other Big Cats, Lions are separated by gender. All cubs and adolescent Lions do not have manes. Not to be confused with Lionesses. Once they are fully grown, similar to Ostriches, their gender will be determined. Cubs will attack smaller mobs. Once they are fully grown, they will attack anything smaller than themselves.

Panthers
Panthers are about the same size of most Big Cats. They can be distinguished from other Big Cats as they are pure Black with vivid Blue eyes. They can be found in most biomes but are commonly found in Plains or Jungles.

Tigers and White Tigers
Tigers and White Tigers will rarely spawn and they are the strongest of Big Cats. They will also attack other mobs. They can spawn in almost any biomes. They will attack the player on sight or when attacked.

Snow Leopards
Snow Leopards are smaller than the other Big Cats and they are only found in Snow biomes.
Note: In order to spawn in a Snow Leopard, you must be in a snow biome when spawning Big Cats, placing snow will not work.

Taming
To tame a Big Cat, a Raw Porkchop or a Raw Fish must be thrown near a cub. Once the cub eats the food, a Medallion can be used on the cub to tame it (right-click on it with the Medallion). The Big Cat can then be named. To rename a Big Cat, the player can right-click on it with a Medallion, a Book or a Name Tag. Big Cats can be healed by feeding them meat or Raw Fish.
Note: There is a glitch in the dev version of Mo' Creatures for 1.8 (version 8.0.0), where Big Cat cubs will not eat Raw Fish or Raw Porkchops when thrown on the ground.
Once tamed, Big Cats will no longer attack the player or tamed Big Cats. They can be led around with a Lead.
Tamed Big Cats can not be bred.
Tamed Big Cats will not attack other tamed mobs.
