Hoglin



Hoglins are hostile mobs which spawn in the. They are the only breedable hostile mob and a source of food in the Nether.

Spawning
Hoglins spawn commonly in groups of 4 in crimson forests; they may respawn over time. There is a 25% chance that they will spawn as baby hoglins rather than adult hoglins.

Drops
When killed, adult hoglins drop:
 * 2–4 ( if they die while on fire). The maximum amount is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 7 with Looting III.
 * 0–2 . The maximum amount is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 5 with Looting III.
 * if killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Behavior
Hoglins are hostile mobs and will attack the player upon sight. Their attack flings a player into the air, in a similar fashion to an iron golem. Baby hoglins also attack; however, they deal less damage and cannot fling into the air. Adult hoglins will not attack players standing near warped fungi and will avoid them, running up to 7 blocks away from the fungi.

They have very high knockback resistance.

Hoglins can be bred using crimson fungi, making a baby hoglin and giving 1-7 experience. The growth of a baby hoglin can be accelerated using crimson fungi. They cannot be bred while they are running away from warped fungi.

Hoglins will also attack piglins, but only if they attack first; they won't attack other mobs.

Hoglins cannot swim in water, and will drown.

Baby hoglins are hostile but flee when hit. They appear to play with baby piglins, running around.
