      The bug

      When any living entity falls into the space of a ladder or vine block, their fall distance resets and they 'climb' down the ladder/vine. For certain entities, such as players, endermen and zombies, this is consistent. For entities like pigs and sheep this is not consistent though: real pigs and sheep can't climb ladders, neither up or down.

      A more consistent solution would be to separate living entities in those that can climb and those that can not climb:

      What entities should definitely climb

      • Player
      • Cat
      • Ocelot
      • Snow Golem
      • Villager
      • Wandering Trader
      • Enderman
      • Zombie Pigman / Zombified Piglin
      • Spider
      • Cave Spider
      • Iron Golem
      • Creeper
      • Drowned
      • Evoker
      • Husk
      • Pillager
      • Skeleton
      • Stray
      • Vindicator
      • Witch
      • Wither Skeleton
      • Zombie
      • Zombie Villager
      • Piglin

      What entities should definitely not climb

      • Cow
      • Donkey
      • Fox
      • Horse
      • Mooshroom
      • Mule
      • Parrot
      • Pig
      • Rabbit
      • Cod
      • Salmon
      • Sheep
      • Skeleton Horse
      • Squid
      • Tropical Fish
      • Turtle
      • Pufferfish
      • Bee
      • Dolphin
      • Llama
      • Panda
      • Polar Bear
      • Wolf
      • Blaze
      • Elder Guardian
      • Guardian
      • Phantom
      • Ravager

      Other entities don't really make sense whether they do it or not.

      To reproduce

      1. Place a column of climbable blocks
      2. Spawn a pig on top of the column so that the pig falls down
         See the pig climbing down: pigs can't even climb...
