Bone Meal Bone

Taming

Using a bone on a wild wolf has a 1⁄3 chance of taming it. Bones cannot tame a hostile wolf or a wolf that has already been tamed. However, bones can be used to attract the attention of already tamed wolves.

Helmet

This feature is exclusive to Java Edition.

While a bone cannot be equipped in the head slot in Survival mode, equipping it compulsorily by using commands causes it to appear in the player's mouth.
