Mobs

A mob, short for 'mobile' creature, is a type of entity with a proper AI that allows it walk/jump/fly. There are three types of mobs: passive, aggressive/hostile, and neutral.

Mobs may be hunted for mob drops, used as decoration, or kept as a pet, although the only one that can be properly tamed is the wolf.

Hostile mobs

Hostile mobs are aggressive creatures that actively attempt to attack and chase the player. They can be found in environments such as dark caves and the nether, and do not appear in the peaceful difficulty setting.

Trivia

• The dog only spawns when taming a wolf
• The flaming chicken spawn when a chicken is set on fire
• Undead mobs (the skeleton and zombie) will burn during the day time, eventually dying if they do not find either cover underneath blocks or water.
• When a Zombie pigman is attacked, it will call other zombie pigmen to kill you
• The snow golem, when attacked, will throw snow balls at the player. These do not cause any damage.
• When a cactus cow is attacked, it will run at the player and deal damage.
