You call all beasts of CR 1 or lower that are within 500 feet of you. They will begin arriving a round later and will continue to arrive for 1 minute. While the spell is in effect, the creatures will pay attention to you and will not attack each other. For the duration of the spell, they will be charmed by you and will see you as someone to trust and heed.
While the animals are in front of you, you may set a non-combat-related task for them to perform. As long as the task is within their physical capabilities, they will perform the task to the best of their ability. When the spell ends or you lose concentration, the animals will peacefully disperse.
Although you cannot order the animals to directly attack, you can order them to harass or threaten foes. For instance, you can order squirrels to throw nuts at a target, beavers to gnaw down a tree so that it blocks the road, wolves to growl menacingly or stalk the target as if it were prey, goats to make mock charges, and so on. An animal that is injured will flee and will no longer be subject to your spell
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell with a 6th-level spell slot, the beasts will be charmed by you for 1 hour. When you cast this spell with an 8th-level spell slot, the beasts will be charmed by you for 8 hours.
