Reading the table

Health is in half hearts, the way the game counts it: 20 is ten hearts, the same as a player. Armor works like a player's armor points and cuts the damage the mob takes. Size is the hitbox in blocks, width by height, which decides the gaps a mob fits through in a farm. XP is for a player kill; a mob wearing gear gives a little more for each piece.

For damage, the damage calculator works out what each mob deals on every difficulty. The Mob XP Calculator turns XP into levels, the mob variants page shows where each variant spawns, and the entity ID list has every ID for commands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many mobs are there in Minecraft?

The list above has every living mob in the latest Java release, counted from the game's own entity data. It leaves out the player, armor stands and mannequins, and counts each mob once however many variants it has.

Which Minecraft mob has the most health?

The Warden, with 500 health (250 hearts). The Wither has 300 and the Ender Dragon 200, then the Ravager, the Iron Golem and the unused Giant at 100. The Warden also ignores knockback entirely.

Why does a mob drop nothing even though it is listed?

Many drops are 0 to some number, so a kill can drop nothing. The drops listed under player kill only drop when a player gets the kill, at the chance shown where there is one, and Looting raises both the counts and the chances.

Which mobs give the most XP?

The Ender Dragon gives 12,000 XP the first time it dies and 500 after that. The Wither gives 50, and the Piglin Brute and the Ravager 20. Most hostile mobs give 5, and a mob wearing gear gives a bit more for each piece.
