By pressing "Shift" on the keyboard, lox will run. While running they pretty much destroy everything in their path., so avoid cloudberry patches & planted crops while galloping. I was very fortunate in the map seed I got, it has huge swaths of plains and many of the land masses are 80-90% plains. I am currently exploring the land mass with Yagluth, which is all plains, so having a tamed lox to ride makes travelling very noice.
