Mobs in Minecraft are AI-driven entities resembling living creatures. They are affected by physics, in-game environmental conditions and can interact with players or other mobs.
There are a total of 73 mobs in Minecraft as of version 1.17. Each mob has a purpose and specific drops and uses.
Mobs can be passive like cows, pigs, and sheep, neutral like the Iron golem, or hostile like the Skeleton. This article shall focus on the hostile mobs in Minecraft.
