The latest admin event in 99 Nights in the Forest has introduced one of the most exciting mechanics yet — animal taming. Players can now befriend different creatures using the new Taming Flute, starting from cute bunnies all the way to powerful wolves, alpha wolves, and even bears. This guide breaks down everything you need to know about how to tame animals, what each one requires, and how to upgrade your flute for stronger creatures.
Getting Started with the Taming Flute
To begin taming, you’ll first need the Taming Flute, which was introduced during the admin event. Once you receive it, equip the flute in your inventory and look for animals around the forest.
When you approach an animal, a taming circle will appear. You’ll need to time your click within the green section to successfully initiate taming. If done correctly, you’ll see emojis appear above the animal’s head, showing its progress and needs.
How to Tame Bunnies
Bunnies are the easiest to tame and are perfect for beginners.
- Required item: Carrots
- Steps: Approach a bunny, play the flute, and then feed it a carrot when prompted.
Each bunny you tame helps increase your flute’s experience, so farming bunnies is a great way to start leveling up your flute early on.
Tip: Build a small carrot farm near your base so you never run out of food for your bunny companions.
How to Tame Wolves
Once your flute reaches a higher level, you can move on to wolves.
- Required item: Steak (raw only)
Steps:
- Hunt normal wolves for steak.
- Use the flute on a wolf and feed it two raw steaks.
- Repeat the process up to three times to fully tame it.
Important: Do not store the steak inside your Infernal Sack — it will cook automatically, and cooked meat won’t work for taming.
Once tamed, your wolf becomes a loyal pet. You can name it, make it sit, or follow you around the forest.
How to Tame Alpha Wolves and Higher-Level Taming
When your flute reaches Level 2, you can tame Alpha Wolves. These are tougher and require a combination of foods.
- Required items: Steak, Corn, and Stew
- Steps: Feed each of these items to the Alpha Wolf four times.
This process takes time and preparation, so stock up on ingredients first.
To level up your flute, visit the crafting building found in the forest — it’s the same area used for upgrading fishing rods in previous updates.
How to Tame Bears and Mammoths
At Flute Level 3, the strongest level, you can attempt to tame Bears and Mammoths.
- Required items for Bears: Ribs, Pumpkin, and Stew
- Required items for Mammoths: Ribs (dropped from Mammoths themselves)
You’ll need multiple rounds of feeding (five times for bears) to complete taming. Be prepared to gather plenty of ingredients since these high-tier animals consume large amounts of food.
New Animals and Tips
Developers also added new animals during the event, such as a bird-like creature that can be tamed with berries. Players can now form entire animal armies by combining multiple tamed species — from rabbits to wolves. Extra Tips:
- Avoid fighting near your tamed pets — stray attacks can harm or kill them.
- You can rename your pets and issue commands like sit or follow.
- Always carry extra food, as taming consumes a lot of your resources.
Taming animals in 99 Nights in the Forest adds a whole new layer to survival and exploration. Starting with bunnies and working your way up to bears is a rewarding process that lets players build their own forest companions.
Keep upgrading your flute, prepare enough food, and you’ll eventually command an entire animal army in the forest. If you’re aiming for the legendary Mammoth, stock up on ribs and patience — it’s the toughest challenge yet.
