The Penguin Returns

The Penguin would be a perfect mob to inhabit rocky shores, snowy biomes, and the new ice caves. When fed any fish, it swims to guide the player to the nearest shipwreck or ocean ruin—a feature far more useful than simply boosting boats. When two penguins are fed, one lays an egg on the ground (preferring ice blocks) and the other sits on top to hatch it, with the egg being collectible using Silk Touch. Additionally, adult penguins are protective and will attack anyone who dares to hurt their chicks

 

Dolphins already have a mechanic for reaching underwater structures, so perhaps the penguin could help the player reach the surface quickly by pulling them from the bottom of the water if they are drowning.This was a suggestion from a comment below, and I thought it was amazing.

    They should also be able to give you ice blocks to make for ice bricks.

    i think that the penguin should do something else than give you a 2nd boat movement buff, i think you should be able to ride them. i also think that if killed or brushed they can give you there feathers, that you can make boots out of that can make you slide on slippery blocks like ice, mud, and amethyst.

    I like the idea but why would they inhabit the ice caves?

    Apoio a ideia. Como comenteu que eles poderiam aparecer nas cavernas de gelo, eles são animais que ficam tanto na terra quanto na água, acho que então poderiam ter aqüíferos nessas cavernas ou alguma variação da caverna com uma ligação a uma área com água para eles terem onde nadar quando estivessem nas cavernas.

    i like the idea of helping you not drown, but how about they are aggressive if you take their eggs and you can't feed them for 5-15 minutes

    The Copper Golem lost the Mob Vote and still made it into the game, so why didn't the penguin can't make it too?

    Me parece muy buena idea, pero normalmente en la naturaleza el hielo matara al embrión mejor lo podrían hacer en un nuevo tipo de roca o en nidos que hagan con palos para proteger sus nidos de ataques del frostbite el nuevo zombie.

    I would love to see the penguins flapping about and i want them to be tameable as the way the cats do with foods like raw salmon, raw cod and tropical fish. I want them to be like a brand whole new game changer for minecraft in the update name ive come up with also known as, "Winter And Binter" update!

    Yeah I be really cool to have some penguins in the new ice place cuz it's so lonely it's just polar bears and that's it and foxes pretty boring they don't have any special ability only the polar bear can just attack you but the penguin you can make the penguin life slide and it's the belly in the snow and maybe we can be able to tame them with fish

    I think that you should sometimes see HUNDREDS of penguins huddled together with eggs in between their feet like emperor penguins in real life. I also think that it you feed them any raw fish then they are tame and can ride in them on ice by equipping them with a special penguin saddle of some sort.
