The jungle hills biome was a hills variant of the jungle biome that no longer generates since Caves & Cliffs: Part II, and was removed in Java Edition.

Description

Similar to other hills biomes, the jungle hills featured steeper terrain, making it a more difficult variant of the already difficult jungle for survival purposes. The foliage generated was similar to its regular counterpart, with large or small jungle trees (sometimes with cocoa pods), large or small oak trees, melon patches, bamboo, and jungle bushes. Ocelots, parrots and pandas also spawned here and jungle pyramids generated here.

Mobs

In Java Edition, jungle hills used the same mob spawning chances as jungles for ambient categories, and had different chances for the others:

Mob	Spawn weight	Group size

Sheep	12⁄63	4
Pig	10⁄63	4
Chicken	10⁄63	4
Cow	8⁄63	4
Parrot	10⁄63	1
