I'm having trouble with animals on my server. I've researched this and thought I could do what I want without plugins. I want to increase animals. With the research I found built in commands that I thought would do this however they don't or I just don't understand what exactly these commands do.
spawn.min_rate 10
spawn.max_rate 20
spawn.min_density 10
spawn.max_density 20
This is not helping increase animals however it does appear to increase other resources.
I have a few questions I really need help with.
Should the above commands increase animals?
If so, why does it seem to not be working as animals are almost non existent on my server?
What command will show me how many animals are currently spawned on the map?
Can you recommend a plugin I can use that is active still in the community that will allow me to spawn more animals and have some control over them such as spawn more bears and wolves at night.
Solved Using the spawn rate/density settings?

The command you're looking for to see what resources (including animals) are on the map is: spawn.report
I'm curious what server version you're running, as I too have severe animal deficiencies. I'm running Linux which I know is pretty rare, and most server operators complain of TOO MANY animals....

On a large map 133 is not enough animals for anyone to find. -
To be clear, on a 5KM map, that is only 1 animal every 37,593 square meters....
