Here are the downloads for my Minecraft animal / other rigs. These rigs are designed to work in Autodesk Maya 2016 or newer, and are not guaranteed to work on older versions.
If you use any of these rigs, please copy-paste this into your video description:

You will need to re-link the textures for the rigs. If you want my rigs to just work, place the textures inside your project in the following directory structure: sourceimages/images for textures/minecraft textures/textures-new/
Or you can manually link them. Check out this page for information about how to extract the textures from Minecraft.
