Water Beefalo

"These creatures seem reasonable."

- Maxwell

Water Beefalo, also known as Ox, are the Shipwrecked version of Beefalo. They have the same characteristics as the Beefalo, with the only differences being that the Water Beefalo do not drop wool if killed, and their horns are different. They are native to Mangrove biome, can occasionally be found in them. While they spend most of their time in water, they can also walk on land.

Similar to Beefalo, Water Beefalo will periodically drop Manure. When one of them is attacked, the entire herd will rush to their defense. They will huddle together at Dusk and sleep through the Night.

Tips

 * An entire herd of Water Beefalo can easily be killed if you use a Boat Cannon on them while they huddle together during the Night.

Trivia

 * The "horn" value in the local prefabs and SetSharedLootTable ( 'ox' are commented out in the ox.lua file, suggesting that either, Water Beefalo are not intended to drop horns at all or more likely, Water Beefalo will in the future.
 * Currently Water Beefalo can not be shaved with a Razor, meaning there is currently no Water Beefalo Wool or similar to obtain. This feature might be available in the future though, as in the game files graphics for the "shaved" Water Beefalo can already be found.
