Muddy Pigs for the Wild Update

Mud existed in Minecraft Earth, but a different block named Mud will be coming in 1.19. 1 out of 10 Pigs will roll around in mud when in contact with it will become the Muddy Pig variant from Minecraft Earth. Muddy Pigs can travel faster than normal pigs when ridden, but water washes off the mud.

    Great idea! Maybe if they are killed they could have a chance to drop mud balls for making mud bricks? Voted for sure!

    (Adapting a post I was about to make):

    This would be perfect for the Wild Update, especially considering the addition of mud. This iconic mob (one of the most iconic parts from its game) would be the perfect way to memorialize Minecraft Earth (and its version of mud, rip) and honor the developers who worked on the game's original content, all while still fitting the theme of the base game's next major update.

    The Muddy Pig would be a resident of the swamp and mangrove swamp and would behave mostly like normal pigs. Their love of playing in mud could be useful for helping players identify the location of mud pockets or even just to help spot regions above water from a distance. In the first look at Minecraft Live, it appeared that players moved slower in mud just like soul sand. Maybe Muddy Pigs don't experience that, which could be an incentive to ride them in the swamps. They also just add some unique life; a mob that is clearly tied to its environment. 

    If their drops were to be expanded on beyond those of a normal pig, perhaps they can drop the flower on their head or mud balls, the component for mud blocks and for making mud bricks.

    I put mud on the ground, but when the pig runs over the mud, the muddy pig does not turn out to be a muddy pig, why?
