Hoglin
Hostile · Nether
Hoglins are large boar-like mobs native to the Crimson Forest that serve as the primary meat source in the Nether. They are one of the few Nether mobs that can be bred (using Crimson Fungi) and farmed for food. If brought to the Overworld, they quickly transform into the undead and uncontrollable Zoglin.
