Shoulder Mounting and Traveling with Skunks

How to Mount a Skunk on Your Shoulder

Right-click on a tamed skunk while sneaking (holding shift) to place it on your shoulder. This is useful for transporting skunks over long distances without using leads, and it looks adorable. You can carry one skunk at a time on each shoulder.

Benefits of Shoulder Mounting

When mounted on your shoulder, skunks still provide defensive benefits and their glowing eyes illuminate dark areas, helping you navigate caves and night exploration. This makes them both practical and atmospheric companions. Mounted skunks won't wander away, ensuring you don't lose them during dangerous journeys.

Dismounting and Management

Right-click again while sneaking to remove the skunk from your shoulder. This mechanic is perfect for exploring new areas, crossing dangerous terrain, or simply enjoying the companionship of your pet while keeping your hands free for mining and combat. Combine shoulder mounting with multiple skunks for maximum visibility and defense in dark environments.
