Wild Animals (AP)

"Wild Animals are creatures you can befriend and, potentially, adopt in Harvest Moon: Animal Parade.

The animals live in various locations around Castanet, and if they become your pet then they will move in with you. In total, there are 24 wild animals to choose from. You can adopt the same number of pets as whatever level your house is, so if you have a level 2 house you may have 2 pets.

Wild animals are befriended by giving them gifts and petting them. Once you reach 3 hearts with an animal, you may pick it up if it is a small animal. At 6 hearts you have the option to adopt the animal. If your pet level is already maxed out, you may replace a current pet with a new pet and your old pet will go down to 3 hearts.

Once an animal is your pet, you can choose to take it on walks with you. Sometimes they will find items while on these walks, and their affection for you increases the longer the walk is. Be careful not to leave your animals behind, though. This makes them unhappy and they will lose affection for you. After you have adopted the pet you can teach it tricks with the Animal Whistle. This will also raise affection with your pet, and if they learn high level tricks they have a chance at winning the Animal Festival.
