Wild Hearts Small Kemono & Materials

Small Kemono are unique in Wild Hearts as they drop different materials depending on what chapter you are playing. The game does not tell you what chapter to play to get the materials from the creatures, but if you press the Y button or Triangle on the animals in the Cyclopaedia it will change from “Normal” to “Invasive” and the location and the rewards for killing or petting these creatures can change.

Pro Tip – Normal Kemono are usually the ones in chapter 1 and 2 and the invasive versions are usually the same animals but killing or petting them in chapter 3 and 4, so if you dont find the obtainable material you need from an enemy, simply change chapters and try again.
