A pigman is an extinct neutral creature (or so it is believed). It wields a ruby or taaffeite battle axe.
It spawns naturally rarely in Pigman Villages, which you can only find in the Mushroom Savanna Biome (this biome belongs to another Alpha Livestock)

Equipment
They naturally wield ruby, or taaffeite battle axe. They equip ruby and taaffeite armor respectively. They will always prioritize tools, swords and armor of a higher level, for example they equip diamond armor before iron armor.
The Pigmans attack all types of monsters except the following: creepers, piglins, zombie pigmans, zombie piglins, endermans, piggies, hoglins, hoglin brutes, piglin beasts, zombie pig, zombie hog and zombie piglets.
They do not attack players unless provoked. If a Wild Pigman Brute is provoked it will become enraged and all Wild Pigmans will retaliate against the entity that attacked them.
Like villagers, evil pigmans can open and close wooden doors but cannot open fence gates, all trapdoors, and iron doors. They also cannot climb ladders.
Can float on water.
They can be cured by feeding them a carrot, golden carrot or a gilded carrot.
Zombification
After spending 15 seconds in the Nether, they become zombified, and will then transform into a Zombie Pigman. You can prevent their zombification by taming them.
If a Pigman dies fighting a zombie pigman brute, zombie piglin, zombie piggy, ancient zombie pigman, zombie pig, zombie hoglin, zombie piglin beast or zombie hog there is a 50% chance of being zombified (on the hard difficulty it is 100%)
If a Pigman dies while fighting a Wither-related entity, there is a 50% chance of withering away (on Hard difficulty it's 100%).
Taming
Pigmans can be tamed by feeding them a ruby carrot, once tamed they will chase, protect and attack those who attack their owner.
A pigman can sit if you interact with him.
