I was given permission to port this mod by Nedius through PM. This mod was too good to be left behind, so I took the liberty to port Nedius's mod over to Skyrim SE. Patches are beyond my knowledge atm, but its not out of the possibility, could use some help for that.

IMPORTANT NOTE
---------------------------
**********************************************************************************************************************

This mod has now been fully cleaned, as should, as far as I know, run
without any crashes or other issues. Obviously, mods that alter wildlife
and behaviour may cause issues, but I have done my best to avoid this
by making all my creatures unique.

However, it won't 'work' with mods where you need to eat, as my food won't have the scripts to make
them a requirement. If someone knows how to add those, would love the
help!

**********************************************************************************************************************

Over 490 new variants of the natural wildlife of Skyrim! Revised AI and wildlife faction interaction, 16 new lore friendly diseases, 45 new
ingredients, 21 new foods and 21 new recipes!

1. Instillation

Extract the .esp into your Skyrim SE data folder (probably located at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrimSE\Data) or some similar location.

Select the plugin via the plugin menu on the load menu, or via the Mod Manager of your choice.

Please ignore the ‘0.1’ at the end of the mod. This will not be changed so
that people using systems such as NMM, MO2, LOOT, ETC.

2. Leveled Lists

Real Wildlife - Skyrim SE edits the leveled lists for the basic Skyrim SE game. If you are concerned that this will affect
other mods, I recommend creating a merged mod using a tool such as Wrye
Bash (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=1840). or Mator Smash (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/90987).

3. Features

This mod includes:

•Over 490 age and disease based variants of the following:
oBears (normal, cave and snow)
oCows
oChaurus / Charus Reaper
oChickens
oDeer
oDogs
oElk
oFoxes / Arctic Foxes
oFrostbite spiders (over 50 additional variations of these...)
oGiants
oGoats
oHorkers
oHorses (all types)
oIce Wraith
oMudcrabs
oRabbits
oSabre Cats (normal and snow)
oSkeevers (multiple variations including many new diseased variants)
oSpriggans / Spriggan Matrons
oTrolls / Frost Trolls (including a new ‘Demented’ variant)
oWolves (Normal, Red and Ice)


•The lore-friendly diseases added in this mod now include:
oBloodlung
oCollywobbles
oDampworm
oDroops
oFeeble Limb
oGreenspore
oHelljoint
oRed Rage
oRust chancre
oSerpiginous Dementia
oShakes
oSwamp Fever
oTicklebritch
oWither
oWitless Pox
oYellow Tick

For list of effects they give, please see the very bottom of this file (in case of spoilers!)

•Enhanced difficulty - Juvenile, Adult and Mature creatures are more challenging than Skyrim's base wildlife.
•29 new ingredient variants (e.g. eyes, hearts, claws and meat for appropriate creatures)
•20+ new foods (creature meats)
•11 new food recipes
•New additions to existing leveled lists are few, but include:
oWild dogs to the 'prey' / ambient creatures
ostray cows to the 'prey' lists in appropriate areas
oTiny, non-aggressive spiders to ambient creatures.
oSmall, non-agressive Skeevers to take the place of common ‘rats’.
oWild horses and Wild cows to plains 'prey' lists.
o'Demented Trolls' - They act a little unpredictably. Basically, I needed a creature to carry 'Serpiginous Dementia'...


This means you can now encounter hundreds of variations on the existing
wildlife - a bit more natural. Oh, and in response to requests, the
creatures I've decided are 'fast' have had their speed increased by 25%.
And a number of wildlife have had they basic AI altered - Many variants
will be more passive, give warnings, run away etc. But not too much - I
may make a specific 'Passive Real Wildlife - Skyrim' version of the mod
for those who want the wildlife to all but ignore the PC.


4. Known Bugs

•Reanimated horses do not animate. This is a feature of the basic Horse Race from
the vanilla game, which I’m hesitant to alter to reduce the risk of
conflicts.
•Cows – They’re filled with helium. Why this is, I’m not sure. It’s been suggested that it’s caused
by the alterations in scale, that anything other than 1.0 will cause
this, but I’m not sure.
•Some creatures occasionally do not animate, but this is rare – possibly caused by a
problem with how the game handles altered levelled lists.
•Some users report CTDs, but I’ve been unable to replicate them, so can’t say why this is happening.
