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.
With Vibrant Visuals, jungle hills use a strong humid volumetric fog setting, which fades the distance in an orange tint. Jungle hills have warm atmospherics, lighting, and color grading, which makes the biome look more humid and warm.
Mobs
In Java Edition, jungle hills used the same mob spawning chances as jungles for ambient categories, and had different chances for the others, while in Bedrock Edition, jungle hills used the same mob spawning chances as jungles.
The following mobs spawned naturally here:
| Mob | Spawn weight | Group size |
|---|---|---|
| Creature category | ||
 Sheep | 12⁄63 | 4 |
 Pig | 10⁄63 | 4 |
 Chicken | 10⁄63 | 4 |
 Cow | 8⁄63 | 4 |
 Parrot | 10⁄63 | 1 |
 Panda | 1⁄63 | 1–2 |
| Chicken | 10⁄63 | 4 |
 Ocelot | 2⁄63 | 1–1 |
| Monster category | ||
 Spider | 100⁄515 | 4 |
 Zombie | 95⁄515 | 4 |
 Zombie Villager | 5⁄515 | 1 |
 Skeleton | 100⁄515 | 4 |
 Creeper | 100⁄515 | 4 |
 Slime[note 1] | 100⁄515 | 4 |
 Enderman | 10⁄515 | 1–4 |
 Witch | 5⁄515 | 1 |
