Players ofRaftwho look at what the research table can give them will notice that they need materials like wool toget a bigger backpackand items like eggs to create a healing salve. But where can players find these items when none of the wild animals inRaftdrop them? The answer is to tame an animal and house it on the raft.
Of course, taming an animal isn’t an easy process, and the raft needs to have the proper facilities to keep an animal safe and well-fed. That’s why thisRaftguide will take players through step-by-step instructions that end with a steady supply of wool, eggs, and milk.

Equipment and Facilities
Before trying to catch a wild animal, players should first make sure they’re researched all the equipment they’ll need and have a place on their raft where they can put their livestock.
Catching Livestock
The three animalsRaftplayers can tame are goats, llamas, and cluckers. Goats produce milk, llamas produce wool, and cluckers are large, flightless birds that produce eggs. Players can find all three animals randomly on large islands, including a few rare variants that give players the “Some Look Different!” achievement when caught but which are mechanically identical.
To catch a livestock animal, players must hit it with the net launcher. These animals tend to spook and run around when players get too close, and the net has an arc and travel time that make it hard to aim over long distances. That means the best way to hit an animal is to chase it and try to shoot when it’s moving directly towards or away from the player.
Once the net has caught an animal, players must pick it up and bring it back to their raft. Players can swim while holding an animal,but the shark will attackeven when players' arms are full. Once on board, players should wait until they’re inside their livestock enclosure to let the animal go. Players can also name or rename their animals while holding them.
