Overview
Saddle a pig and you can ride it, steering with a carrot on a stick, though it is slower than walking and mostly a novelty; the carrot on a stick can be used to make it sprint at the cost of durability. Pigs follow carrots, potatoes and beetroot, and breed on them. A pig struck by lightning becomes a zombified piglin, which is the only way to create one in the Overworld.
In Minecraft, Pig is classified as a passive mob. It has 10 health points, or 5 hearts. Expect 3 experience per kill.
