The Frostbite is a hostile mob that spawns naturally in nine biomes, including Deep Frozen Ocean, Frozen Ocean, Frozen Peaks, Frozen River, and Ice Caves.

Players who defeat a Frostbite collect Rotten Flesh and an Ice Ball from its drops. A spawn egg for the mob also exists, so players can place one directly into the world.
