Rustlers & Scarecrows
A leaf bug that jumps out of broken leaves, steals from you and runs. Part of the Rustlers data pack.
Sometimes jumps out of leaves broken by hand, once a player has chopped fifty logs or played for forty minutes. It bites, steals a whole stack and runs for the edge of the island. One hit stops it and drops what it took. Shears never wake one, and none appear near a scarecrow.

When it appears#
- Only from leaves broken by hand, never by shears.
- Never during a new player's grace period: until they have chopped fifty logs or played for forty minutes.
- Never within eight blocks of a scarecrow.

Stopping it#
- One hit stops a Rustler and makes it drop what it took.
- A killed Rustler sometimes drops the sapling of the tree it came from.
- Use shears or a crook on leaves near your valuables, or place a scarecrow.
