#minecraft mountains

1.17 sees the addition of goats, a new mountain mob that will jump high, walk on powder snow and accidentally hit trees, causing it to drop a horn. The horn makes a loud noise, and is otherwise useless. The goat can traverse powdered snow, which the player can only sink through, and can jump very high.

Other than that, it does nothing. But it does have potential. Out of the many things I have found online, these are some of the best ideas that I found: First; goat’s milk. It would be like normal milk, but with extra features such as satiating hunger, increasing jump height temporarily, or doing both of these but not removing potion effects.

Second; goat’s horn as a potion ingredient. The goat’s horn could be used in potions that increase jump height, allow you to temporarily walk on powdered snow, or in a sleeping potion that allows you to sleep regardless of time or proximity to monsters. It would allow you to sleep at daytime and remove the problem of having to kill one zombie outside your base to sleep because the game won’t let you until there are no hostile mobs in close proximity to you. Finally; goat’s horn to confuse the warden or attract nearby pillagers. The goat horn’s loud noise could startle and confuse the warden, making it easier to defeat. It could attract pillagers in a raid, so if there are any pillagers in odd locations, you don’t have to go around searching for them.

Beautiful mountains... And pig.
