Animations
6 of these were recorded inside the running game, so the movement is the animation Mojang shipped rather than an imitation of it. Transparent background, free to download.
Sounds
13 sound events for this mob, 37 files in all. Where an event lists more than one file the game picks one at random. Volume, pitch and attenuation are the values the game declares in its own sounds.json.

Stats
Mojang publishes these numbers in the Bedrock behaviour pack (bedrock-samples); the Java edition keeps them in code, not in any data file. Most values match across editions, but not all — treat them as the Bedrock figures.
