Animals should be attacked by mobs too!

I think that it is quite annoying that the player is the only one that is attacked by Zombies, Skeletons, e.t.c. I think that it would be fun if farming animals were more difficult by having pigs cows and sheep attacked by monsters too.

    I feel as if this would make the game nearly impossible to find and protect animals after one night. It may be more reasonable if it was only horses, and tamed animals. This could be a custom setting in the gamerules, though.

    The reason why some animals don't get attacked by hostile mobs is because the player can actually fight back so therefore they see them as a bigger threat.

    Also some animals do get attacked by mobs. Here's one example:

    Turtles and Phantoms

    i always thought about this idea, because with all the mobs inside minecraft and having an animal outside, it's a bit weird to feel safe about your animals. and this wouldn't make the game way harder or even impossible, because putting fences around is all it takes. it just punishes you for careless animal caretaking!
