Clad yourself in the best equipment possible with our guides on finding Diamonds and Netherite, or consult our page on brewing potions to give yourself powerful buffs while in combat. Whether you're facing terrifying monsters like Endermen and Guardians, or simply hostile animals such as Polar Bears, you'll have to be prepared to defend yourself against Minecraft many mobs. These are powerful mobs which have their own health bars, and they are currently the most dangerous enemies in Minecraft - except, of course, the players you'll encounter on PvP Minecraft servers. There are currently two 'boss mobs' in Minecraft. Warden (upcoming mob, arriving with Minecraft 1.19 update).There's just no reasoning with these ones. Hostile mobs will always attack nearby players if they can. Zombified Piglin - provoked if attacked.Polar Bear (adult) - provoked if attacked or if near a cub.Panda - provoked if attacked, attacks only once.Piglin (adult) - provoked by any player not wearing 1+ Golden Armor pieces.Llama - provoked if attacked, attacks only once.Iron Golem - provoked if nearby villager is attacked.Enderman - provoked if attacked or looked at.

Cave Spider - hostile if in low light level.Bee - provoked if attacked or beehive broken, attacks only once.Below I've also listed next to each mob how they are provoked into becoming hostile. Neutral mobs can switch between hostile or passive towards the player depending on the situation. Ocelot - not truly tame, but will 'trust' the player.Fox - not truly tame, but will 'trust' the player.Mule - can be bred from horse and donkey, but cannot itself breed.Allay (upcoming mob, arriving with Minecraft 1.19 update).

Frog (upcoming mob, arriving with Minecraft 1.19 update).

Below is a list of all Passive mobs, followed by lists of all breedable, tameable, and rideable passive mobs. Most of these mobs are harmless animals that will flee if attacked, or even approached in some cases.

Passive mobs are mobs that will never attack the player, even if the player attacks them first. Below I've listed every single mob in the game, categorised based on whether they are passive, neutral, or hostile towards the player. Now there's a grand total of 73 mobs in Minecraft (with more coming in Minecraft 1.19!), and each mob looks and behaves very differently from the rest. Minecraft has come a long way since it first began life in the early 2010s.
