Zombified mobs
Zombified mobs adds zombified versions of cows, pigs and chickens that spawn at night in biomes, and the Forge mod is published only for Minecraft 1.20.1.
What it does
Three zombified variants are added: a zombified cow, a zombified pig and a zombified chicken. They are not hostile in the usual sense, but the author describes them as hunting villagers and animals. The zombified pig is noted as much faster than its normal counterpart, and the zombified cow is slightly faster than a normal cow and deals more damage. The variants only spawn at night, in specific biomes.
Installation requires Forge for 1.20.1 and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. The author states that the mod was made mainly as a standalone release for an upcoming modpack, and that more zombified mobs are planned for the future. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
