You can place the mob back in the world by using it on the ground, or dropping it (configurable).

As a bonus, you can also wear them on your head!

By default, you must have empty hands, and only animals that are smaller than 2x2 blocks can be picked up, but you can configure all of these parameters.

Configuration should match between server and client to avoid visual glitches. Install (https://modrinth.com/mod/gently-holds) for a config GUI.
