Pig

Pigs are passive mobs that first appeared in Survival Test mode. The main purpose of pigs is to supply pork, and therefore are a renewable source of food. Pigs are 1.1875 blocks tall, 0.625 blocks wide and 1.25 blocks long.

Behavior
Pigs wander around aimlessly, when they come to an obstacle they will often try to breach it by jumping, and this makes for some odd behavior when at obstacles they cannot over come. They will make no attempt to stay out of water, and a common sight is several pigs bouncing up and down in the water. If you stand near a pig, it will turn its head towards you for a few seconds, then resume its wandering. Pigs often spawn in groups of 3-4. Like other passive mobs, they are attracted to lights, and can sometimes be seen jumping up and down on a Torch or other light source.

Information & History

 * The default mob a mob spawner spawns is a pig, and therefore if a mob spawner is placed by the player, it will spawn pigs if there is grass with a light level above 9 within five blocks of the spawner.
 * Pigs are the only animal rideable with a saddle, but you are incapable of controlling movement.

Appearance

 * Pigs, like sheep have a separate armor file (the saddle), but do not spawn with it.
