Salmon - ZAWA-Evolved/ZAWA GitHub Wiki

This page is a work in progress!

Spawning and taming

Salmon are uncommon spawns in fast fresh water (river phase) and polar ocean (ocean phase) biomes. They always spawn in schools of 6 fish.

As ambient, neutral animals, they can be picked up without issue. They can also be picked up in a bucket.

Salmon cannot be tamed, but are still perfect for your exhibits anyways! As fast speed animals, it may take you a couple of tries.

Care

Salmon have 4 hearts (8 points) of health, can deal 0 hearts of damage, and drop raw salmon upon death.

As ambient animals, they do not need specialized care.

Salmon can be bred with termites.

Usage

Salmon is a food item obtained from salmon when killed, and is part of several diets to feed tamed animals.

Food

Eating one raw salmon restores 2 hunger, and eating one cooked salmon restores 6 hunger.

Breeding

Salmon can be used to breed tamed Polar Bears, Bald Eagles, and Emperor Penguins. Salmon will also make their babies grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.

Exhibit building

(note: exhibit building sections contain a mix of gameplay information and building advice. Not all recommendations are necessary to keep animals happy, fed, and watered, but can help players build a realistic enclosure.)

Variants

Both the ocean (saltwater) and river (fresh water) phases are represented in ZAWA Evolved.
