I was baffled when I found out Minecraft's most popular Marketplace mod just adds owls—but now I've tried it, I can't live without it

Whenever I get the itch to play Minecraft again, I always browse the Marketplace first to see if there are any packs I can add to make the game that little bit more exciting. There's an overwhelming amount of content you can spend your coins on, like adding a larger variety of animals and fish to the game, or even dinosaurs if you fancy re-creating your own Jurassic Park.

But you can also add new, horrifying mobs to the game, different animations, and a number of new blocks created by other players which all alter the core Minecraft experience in one way or another. However, the most popular add-on currently available on the Marketplace doesn't add terrors or a huge variety of wildlife to the game. Instead, it focuses on one thing and one thing only: owls.
