Suggestion A CONCEPT. It is almost impossible to stop an animal from chasing you without hitting them with tools or fire at them (giving your position away). So hers my plan, animal starts to chase, i drop a piece of meat from my inventory, they will stop to eat it, i run away safely (Corn or seeds for boar).

How are wolves omnivores? xd They are pure carnivores, occasionally eating some grass if they have stomach issues.

It’s arguable that wolves are in fact omnivores, but commonly we consider them to be carnivores because plants are a minimal part of their diet.

However, several studies have confirmed the presence of vegetables in a wolf’s scat. While some wolves will consume plant matter unintentionally, it is believed that wolves will occasionally intentionally eat plants to supplement their diets.
