🐾Module introduction

I've always wanted to make this mod and now it's finally happened! I love the critters in Stardew Valley, but always felt like they showed up too rarely (except for butterflies and the occasional bird) and always hid behind bushes or trees. Thus, the **Wild Animals** module was born, filling the animal void in my heart!

🌳 Features

• **Dynamic Generation System**: Add a large number of animals to multiple locations in the game based on time, weather and seasons
• **Progressive appearance**: There are fewer animals in the first year of the game, and you will encounter more species as you progress.
• **Natural Behavior**: Animals will wander around and may disappear behind trees or grass
• **Interaction Possibilities**: Certain animals may no longer run away when you approach

⚠️ **Performance Tip**: Due to the number of animals and spawning conditions, this mod may increase the game load and cause lag. However, there was no significant delay during the testing phase with a small number of other modules.
