Glacier Biome

The glacier biome would generate in the very heart of cold biome areas and would generate quite differently from other biomes. Instead of having grass or sand in the first layer, it would have snow blocks. Under the snow would be a few layers of ice and then packed ice. After that is stone and continues as normal. Another thing is that the ice continues for quite a few blocks more than dirt would in other biomes. 

Caves in this biome would begin with ice walls and turn to stone when you get deep enough. In this layer blue ice can generate like any other ore, making this one of the (or even just the) only place on land where you can naturally get blue ice.

  If we are going to have a new biome i feel like it should come with some new animals as well. Prehaps this biome could also consist of a body of water for creatures like penguins, seals, and orcas?

  And maybe give dogs some skin variants like cats got because cat variants are cool because people like cats. People also love dogs so like, yeah....

  If that were all added and maybe a few more things like ice enchantments, this idea would be perfect imo

  Glaciers would be great, especially since many are starting to shrink around the world. I saw a few in Alberta, Canada. It would be nice a Glacier leading into a valley with compact and regular ice came off mountainous peaks with a chance to generate beautiful blue Glacier Lakes that would make you freeze if you stayed in them too long without something like Leather Armour.
