Moles (friendable)

The idea is simple, add in little moles that dig 1x1 tunnels you can find and search for them in, you could even be able to find them above ground by finding mole hill structures. You can befriend them like Dolphins and have them seek out the nearest naturally spawned treasure chest, such as one found in a Dungeon, Mineshaft or Stronghold. A new item may need implementing to feed them and maybe even different items to find different structures' chests specifically.

    I think Worms can be used as the moles feeding item, which can be found in random dirt blocks. These could also be useful for fishing and potions.

    moles could be worked to add danger and potential reward. maybe make them volitile like endermen, yet befriendable to find structures, and they pathfind towards cave-like areas so you would have to manually strip mine a massive gap to attract them... and if you make it so they dont go down to the diamond layer that really could mix up underground exploration

    Idea: if killing one it will drop:

    -Mole's Paw (used to brew a new potion, called the Haste Potion)

    They should also, like how dolphins make you swim faster, let you mine faster when nearby. Moles could also boost crop yields when allowed to live in your farm areas as they aerate the soil.
