A frog is a passive mob found in swamps. Frogs eat small slimes and magma cubes. A frog can produce one of three kinds of Froglights from eating magma cubes, depending on the type of frog.

Spawning

Groups of two to five frogs can spawn in swamp and mangrove swamp biomes. Frogs can also be spawned by growing from tadpoles. There are three frog variants, determined by the biome in which the tadpole grew up:

Notes
  1. a b Frogs spawn naturally in this biome.

Drops

Frogs drop 1–3 when killed by a player or tamed wolf, while 1–7 is dropped upon successful breeding.

Behavior

On land, frogs will slowly wander, jumping at random. They can jump 8 blocks high and take 5♥♥♥ less damage from falling than most other mobs. They prefer jumping on lily pads and big dripleaves, and will usually jump to blocks that are higher up.

In water, frogs move much faster. They will generally swim upwards and remain at the water's surface, but will swim downwards if lured by a player. Frogs cannot be hurt by drowning.

Occasionally, they may croak and inflate their vocal sac.

Breeding

Frogs will follow any player holding a slimeball within 6 blocks of them.

Feeding two frogs a slimeball causes them to enter love mode, causing one of the frogs to become pregnant, similar to turtles. The pregnant frog then searches for a water block with at least one adjacent water block (flowing or source) with air above to lay frogspawn. This spawn later hatches into tadpoles, which subsequently grow into frogs.

Unlike all other mobs with baby variants, the tadpole is treated by the game as a completely different mob from the frog.

Attacking

Frogs attack by using their tongue to pull certain mobs into their mouth, whereupon the mob instantly despawns without a death animation.

Frogs attack small slimes, which drop slimeballs when killed.

Frogs also attack small magma cubes, leaving a froglight block. When the magma cube gets targeted, the frog will walk towards it at a faster pace before attacking. The color of froglight that drops depends on the type of frog that attacks the magma cube:

Frog type Froglight color
Temperate Ochre
Warm Pearlescent
Cold Verdant

Sounds

Java Edition:
Frogs use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

{{IN|bedrock}}, expert-level librarian villagers have a {{frac|1|3}} chance to sell a single compass for 4 emeralds.

== Usage ==

Normally, the compass' needle points toward the world [[Spawn#World spawn|spawn point]]. The compass points to spawn when viewed in any way, including as a dropped [[Item (entity)|item]], in a player's hand, in an inventory or the crafting table, or in an [[item frame]]. The direction the needle points to is relative to the player who is viewing it. When a compass in an item frame is rotated, the needle turns accordingly.

In [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], the compass' needle spins and points in random directions.

The compass can be used on a [[lodestone]], after which it is named lodestone compass by default and points to that lodestone as long as the compass is in the same dimension as the lodestone, but if the compass is taken to a different dimension, it spins randomly, as a normal compass would in the Nether or the End. If the lodestone is destroyed, it also spins randomly, even if the lodestone is replaced afterward.  However, if a lodestone compass is placed in storage, the lodestone can be broken and replaced without the compass losing the attunement, as long as the compass remains in storage while the lodestone is missing.

A lodestone compass appears [[enchanting|enchanted]], similar to the [[Enchanted Golden Apple|enchanted golden apple]].

Using {{cmd|setworldspawn}} to change the world spawn also changes where the compass points.

'''Lava''' is a light-emitting [[fluid]] that causes fire [[damage]], mostly found in the [[altitude|lower reaches]] of the [[Overworld]] and [[the Nether]].

== Obtaining ==
Lava blocks do not exist as items (at least {{in|java}}), but can be retrieved with a [[Lava Bucket|bucket]]. {{IN|bedrock}}, they may be obtained as an item via glitches (in old versions), add-ons or inventory editing.

Lava may be obtained [[renewable resource|renewably]] from [[cauldron]]s, as [[pointed dripstone]] with a lava source above it can slowly fill a cauldron with lava.

=== Natural generation ===
During world generation, lava replaces [[air]] blocks generated in [[cave]]s and [[canyon]]s between Y=-55 and Y=-63. [[Aquifer]]s are sometimes filled with lava below Y=0. Lava does not replace air blocks inside [[mineshaft]]s, [[monster room]]s, [[amethyst geode]]s, or [[stronghold]]s.

Lava can also occur as lava flows from a single [[spring]] block, pouring down walls into pools. The spring block can be on the side of a cave, ravine, mineshaft, or stone cliff above ground.

Lava also generates as small [[lava lake]]s, which can be found above Y=0 within any [[biome]].

Two blocks of lava can also be found in plains, snowy plains, and desert [[village]] weaponsmith buildings, or one source in savanna village weaponsmith buildings.

Fifteen blocks of lava can be found in the [[end portal]] room of a [[stronghold]]: 3 along each side wall, and 9 below the portal frame.

Lava also generates in [[woodland mansion]]s: two blocks of lava generate in the "blacksmith room", and 25 blocks of lava generate in a secret "lava room".

In [[the Nether]], lava is more common than [[water]] in the [[Overworld]]. [[Terrain features#Lava sea|Seas of lava]] occur, with sea level at y-level 32, about a quarter of the total height of the Nether (as the usable space in the Nether is 128 blocks tall). They can extend down to about y-level 19-22. Lava also randomly appears [[Spring#Hidden lava|in single blocks]] inside [[netherrack]] formations. Lava is also generated as a single source in well rooms in [[nether fortress]]es. There are also large pockets of lava generated under y-19 and can reach all the way down to bedrock level. These pockets are generally over 12 blocks in height and often connect to a large lava lake on y-32; the size of these pockets in 1.18 can range from the size of a singular pre-1.18 ravine to multiple ravines combined.

Lava generates as [[delta]] shapes, which can be found commonly in the [[basalt deltas]] biome. Lava also generates in [[ruined portal]]s and [[bastion remnant]]s.

=== Post-generation ===
Unlike [[Water#Source blocks|water source blocks]], new lava source blocks cannot be created in a space by two or more adjacent source blocks. However {{in|Java}}, if the [[game rule]] {{cd|lavaSourceConversion}} is set to {{cd|true}}, new lava source blocks can form in a similar way to water source blocks.

== Usage ==
=== Fuel ===
When used in a [[furnace]], a bucket of lava lasts 1000 seconds (100 items).

=== Burning ===
[[File:Inside Lava.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava.]]
[[File:Under lava fire resistance.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava using Fire Resistance {{in|java}}.]]

Most [[entity|entities]] take {{hp|4}} damage every half-second while in contact with lava, and are set on [[fire]]. An entity/player in lava will also have its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} set to 300, setting it on fire for 15 seconds. This timer is reset to 300 every tick that the victim spends in lava, so it will only start counting down once the victim leaves the lava. Once the victim does exit the lava source, it will burn for just under 15 seconds, taking fire damage 14 times. This is due to the fact that for the first tick outside of lava, its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} decrease to 299, and entities take fire damage when {{code|remainingFireTicks}} is a multiple of 20 and greater than 0. If the victim touches water or [[rain]] falls on it, the fire is extinguished, but the lava continues to damage them directly.

In addition, a dense [[fog]] effect will be applied for players under lava to obscure vision. This can be slightly mitigated via the [[Fire Resistance]] effect.

An entity/player moving in lava has their horizontal movement speed reduced by 50% and their vertical movement speed reduced by 20%.

{{IN|bedrock}}, a player with the Fire Resistance effect or a total [[Fire Protection]] of 7 or higher does not catch fire. 

[[Vex]]es, [[zoglin]]s, Nether [[mob]]s (excluding [[piglin]]s and [[hoglin]]s), [[Wither|withers]], [[Warden|wardens]], and players or mobs affected by the [[Fire Resistance]] effect are not damaged when touching lava. 

The embers or fireballs that fly out of lava are purely decorative and do not cause fires or damage to entities. When rain falls on lava, the black ember particles appear more frequently.

A player in lava lasts a few seconds before dying:

==== ''Java Edition'' ====
* 2.5 seconds with no armor
* 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments
* 4 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments
* 4.5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments
* 5.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments
* 10.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments
* 11 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments

==== Bedrock Edition====
* 2.5 seconds with no armor
* 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments
* 4.5 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments
* 5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments
* 6.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments
* 12.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments
* 12.5 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments
If the player is wearing armor enchanted with [[Fire Protection]], they can last even longer. With the maximum bonus, the damage is small enough that the natural healing from a full hunger bar can outpace it {{only|JE|short=1}}, so a player could survive indefinitely as long as they have food and their armor holds up (non-netherite armor is damaged by lava). This maximum bonus can be obtained by wearing 2 pieces of armor with [[Fire Protection|Fire Protection IV]] and 1 with [[Protection|Protection IV]], or 1 piece of armor with [[Fire Protection|Fire Protection IV]] and 3 with [[Protection|Protection IV]].

==== Fire spread ====
Lava can cause fires by turning air blocks to fire blocks.

In order for air above lava to turn to fire, a block adjacent to the air has to be [[Fire#Burning blocks|flammable]], or one of the wood-constructed [[Fire#Non-flammable blocks|non-flammable]] blocks. Since catching fire depends on air blocks, even torches or lava itself can prevent a flammable block from catching fire.  Additionally, not all flammable or wood-constructed blocks can be ignited by lava.

The lava of any depth can start fires this way, whether or not it appears to have a current.

Additional conditions must be met, depending on the edition of Minecraft.

===== Java Edition =====
{{FakeImage|align=right|{{BlockGrid|scale=2|L=lava|w=Oak Planks|p=Orange Stained Glass|s=Light Gray Stained Glass|wwwwwwwww|wwsssssww|wspppppsw|wwspppsww|wwwsLswww|wwwwwwwww}}|Example for JE. The orange area represents areas<br>where air could catch flame if the<br>gray and orange areas contain<br>flammable blocks. The wood<br>is all at a safe distance.
}}

Air block must be in a 3×1×3 area right above the lava or in a 5×1×5 2 blocks above the lava.

Note that an air block in the 5x1x5 area will not catch on fire if the 3x1x3 area is completely filled, even if the latter is filled with flammable blocks.

===== Bedrock Edition =====
The block to be set on fire must be in a 3×3×3 cube centered on a lava block, above which there must be either air or an ignitable block.

=== Flow ===
{{See also|Fluid}}

Lava flows from "source blocks". Most streams or "lava-falls" come from a single source block, but lava lakes (including the "flood lava" in the bottom 10 layers) are composed entirely of source blocks. A source block can be captured only with a [[lava bucket|bucket]].

In the [[Overworld]] and [[the End]], lava travels 3 blocks in any horizontal direction from a source block. Lava flows far more slowly than water (1 block every 30 game ticks, or 1.5 seconds), and sourceless lava flows linger for a short time more. In [[the Nether]], lava travels 7 blocks horizontally and spreads 1 block every 10 game ticks, or 2 blocks per second, which is half the speed as water in the Overworld. In all dimensions, lava spreading uses the same mechanic as water: for every adjacent block it can flow into it tries to find a way down that is reachable in four or fewer blocks from the block it wants to flow to. When found, the flow weight for that direction is set to the shortest path distance to the way down. (This can result in lava flows turning toward dropoffs that they cannot reach in the Overworld and the End.)

Flowing lava destroys the following in its path: [[sapling]]s, [[cobweb]], [[tall grass]], [[dead bush]], [[wheat]], [[flower]]s, [[mushroom]]s, [[snow]] on ground (but snow blocks are immune), [[lily pad]]s, [[vines]], [[lever]]s, [[button]]s, all three types of [[torch]]es, [[redstone]], [[redstone repeater|repeaters]], [[end rod]]s, and [[rail]]s. [[Sugar cane]]s hold back lava, but disappear if the sugar cane's water source is destroyed by the lava. Lava also slows down entities, including those that are normally immune to lava damage.

Using redstone wire, a one-block lava flow can be redirected by supplying power to the source block, which causes it to reset the flow toward the now-nearest terrain depression. It cannot, however, be reversed. This re-calculation is made because of the redstone wire when toggled changes the block from redstone (on) to redstone (off). Whenever a block updates on any side of the lava, the lava re-calculates where to flow, but does not cut off its current direction of flow. In Bedrock Edition using the /setblock command can be used to create stationary lava without the use of barriers. 

Flowing lava can push entities.

=== Lava and water ===
{{Main|Fluid#Mixing}}

Water and lava can produce [[stone]], [[cobblestone]], or [[obsidian]] based on how they interact. Lava can also generate basalt when above soul soil and touching blue ice.

=== Light source ===

Lava blocks emit a [[light]] level of 15.

=== Other ===
[[File:LavaDropletsExample.png|thumb|If there is lava flowing above a [[block]], the lava seeps through.]]

Lava above a non-transparent block (does ''not'' include stairs, fences, and slabs) produces dripping particles on the underside of that block. These droplets do not do anything other than warn the player that a deluge of lava lies above that block. The particles function identically to their water counterparts, except that they drip slower.

Flowing lava can set off tripwires because it breaks placed string. Lava triggers a tripwire only once.

Any [[item (entity)|item]] dropped into lava is immediately destroyed, except for [[netherite]]-related items. [[Lodestone|Lodestones]], however, can be destroyed by lava despite containing netherite.<ref>{{bug|MC-176618|||WAI}}</ref>

Lava can be placed in an empty [[cauldron]].

If lava is above a non-transparent block supporting [[pointed dripstone]], dripping particles are created on the end. These can fill cauldrons with lava.

== Farming ==
{{main|Tutorials/Lava farming}}
Lava farms can be created by placing a lava source block on top of a solid block and a [[pointed dripstone]] and a [[cauldron]] underneath.

Lava spends most of its time as stationary, rather than 'flowing' – regardless of its level, or whether it contains a current downward or to the side.  When specifically triggered by a block update, lava changes to 'flowing', update its level, then change back to stationary.  Lava springs are generated as flowing, and lava lakes are generated as stationary.

== Trivia ==
* A player with [[Fire Resistance]] can swim in lava without taking damage, although the swimming speed does not become faster.
* A player cannot sprint-swim in lava.
* An arrow catches fire when shot into flowing lava, but not still lava.
* [[Water]] flows into lava-occupied blocks as though it were empty space, and vice versa.
* Although lava is a fluid, it is not possible to drown in lava. This applies to all mobs. However, it is still possible to suffocate in lava. This applies to almost every mob.{{only|bedrock}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-17073}}</ref>
* A player sleeping in a bed cannot be damaged by lava.
* If the lava is changed to be transparent via a [[resource pack]], it does not become transparent.
* {{IN|bedrock}}, lava does not deactivate [[elytra]] like [[water]] does.
* Despite flowing identically to water while in [[the Nether]], it was not possible to create an infinite spring of lava before [[Java Edition 1.19.3|1.19.3]].
** Before Lava source conversion was implemented, the ''Minecraft: Combat Handbook'' (2014) stated the possibility to create infinite sources of lava by simply creating a cross shape with 4 nether bricks and placing lava in the middle. As expected, this turned out to be false, as confirmed by [[Nathan Adams|Dinnerbone]].<ref>[[bugtracker:MC-71088|MC-71088]]</ref>
* Geologically, lava in the Overworld is consistent with [[wikipedia:Felsic lava|felsic lava]], and lava in the Nether is consistent with [[wikipedia:mafic lava|mafic lava]]. Felsic lava is slow, sticky, and does not run as far as mafic lava, which is relatively thin and runny.
* When lava source conversion was implemented, any text where lava was supposed to be said "lave" instead.
** A splash text now says "Made with 'lave'".

Issues

Issues relating to "Frog" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia

  • The warm frog is based on the grey foam-nest tree frog, a real-life species of frog native to Africa.[2]
  • The temperate frog is based on brown bullfrogs.[3][4]
  • Originally, frogs were meant to eat fireflies, but this was scrapped as in real life some fireflies are poisonous to some frogs. Instead, now they can eat small slimes and small magma cubes.[5]
  • During the frog's early development, the developers didn't know what the frog was going to eat, so they made the mouth huge. Some early ideas for what the frog was going to eat included bees.[6]
  • At one point in Bedrock Edition's development, in beta 1.18.10.26, frogs could eat goats. However, this was later removed as it was leftover prototype code.[7] This was later referenced in the trailer for Minecraft Live 2022, where a frog eats a goat.
  • Despite frogs only spawning in mangrove swamps and swamps, a cold frog can spawn naturally if a cold biome borders a swamp or mangrove swamp.
  • In Minecraft, all frogs seems to have vocal sacs. But in real life, female frogs lack the vocal sacs present in the males. However, since all Minecraft animals are sexless, it's logical for all frogs to have vocal sacs.
