About
Menagerie is a light-questing modpack centered on building a zoo, with exploration and construction woven into the experience. Its animal-focused content includes creatures from mods such as Alex’s Mobs, Naturalist, Ben’s Sharks, Fintastic, Critters and Companions, Unusual Prehistory, and Odd Organisms. Quests guide players through themed activities, including botany and artifact collecting, while photography and animal enclosures contribute to the zoo-building experience. A tourism office exhibit showcases certificates earned by enclosing every species of an animal, and example builds include a monkey exhibit, a land-invertebrate exhibit, and a café run by a tortoise. The pack also supports building and outfitting a zoo with decorative blocks, furniture, painting, storage, and construction tools such as the Construction Gauntlet. Exploration brings expanded structures such as improved villages, dungeons, strongholds, mineshafts, desert temples, jungle temples, ocean monuments, and witch huts.

No harmful code found in the projects we checked
We checked 261 of its 265 projects and the files in the pack itself, without running them.
Why we show this: a modpack installs the files of its mods, and each mod runs on your computer like any program. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: a modpack has no grade of its own, and each mod's result counts in that mod's grade.

8 mods send something about you
We read the code of 254 of its 255 mods, without running it.
Why we show this: a modpack runs the code of its mods, and a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
How we checked
- Go online onlyTheir code contacts a web address, for example to check for updates. We found nothing it sends about you.18 mods
- Crash reports or usage dataTheir author declares crash reports or usage data on Modrinth, or such a service is named in their files. Reading their code did not show it.1 mod
- Send nothingTheir code contacts no web address.228 mods
- Not read yetWe have not read their code yet.1 mod
AI
AI used in 13 of the 216 mods we checked
We found an AI tool in them, or their authors declared AI content.
39 mods are not checked yet.
No sign so far that AI was used to make the pack itself
We looked for AI tools in its texts and found none.
We have not read its files and images yet.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.Nothing found2 of 40 changelogs read
