Squid are passive mobs that spawn in water . Squid are passive toward the player. They are not attracted to light and do not deliberately interact with the player. When a squid moves, its tentacles open and close, giving it an appearance of pushing itself leisurely forward. A squid hovers in place when first spawned into the world and wanders around aimlessly in three dimensions. Squid suffocate when out of water, dying after 300 game ticks (15 seconds). While on land, they remain stationary until they suffocate. They can take fall damage and burn like any other land mob, but they cannot drown. When out of the water, squid are extremely resistant to knockback. Squid cannot swim in lava, even if given a Fire Resistance effect. They simply pass through the lava and behave as if on land. Unlike land-based mobs, squid can swim against a current and not get pushed by it.‌ https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Squid ------------------------------ Minecraft is a  sandbox   video ga...
