Piglin

Mobs & entity

The Piglin is a hostile mob that spawns naturally in two biomes: the Crimson Forest and the Nether Wastes.

Players can also use a spawn egg to place a Piglin directly into the world, which avoids having to travel to either of those biomes to find one.

5 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.

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.
