Have you been playing 7 Days to Die and find yourself wondering where the best place to find animals is? If so, then this blog post is for you!
Here are the best places to look for animals in the game so you can find them in no time:
Where's the Best Place to Find Animals?
The game allows players to share the animals they see around them. As a result, the more players there are in the game, the fewer animals spawn near each person.
Also, after an animal has been found and killed, it takes a long time for a new one to spawn. So, whether you or others have searched out a region, you’ll have to move on to another sector to find more quickly once the meat is gone.

Also, if you travel through a part of the map that hasn’t seen players (or hasn’t seen them in a long time), there will be no animals at first. But if you backtrack over your own path, you’ll find they’ve spawned behind you.
- Explore the streets of a large city [1]. You'll almost certainly come across a wolf or two.
- Major highways also increase the likelihood of encountering wolves.
- The desert is home to mainly wild boar and chicken.
- The green forest biome is home to wild boar, wolves, bears, deer, and chickens.
- The winter biome is home to bears, deer, and wild boar.
- The cactus land (long grass) biome is teeming with wolves and deer.

- In the burnt lands biome (something on fire), you may come across deer or wild boar.
- The server will return a traveling animal once or twice per game week. Either zombie dogs or a hybrid of wolves and black wolves. The wolves can be eaten, but the dogs cannot be consumed.
