Where and what are Minecraft Axolotls
Until Minecraft update 1.17 is released, players will not be able to find Axolotls in the wild . However, they can be spawned in creative mode using spawn eggs. When 1.17 releases, players will be able to find Axolotls in river biomes and the all-new Lush Caves. This is one of the new cave formations that will be introduced with the update. As amphibians, players will only be able to find them in bodies of water. To tame these Axolotls, players will need to catch them in buckets as they do different types of fish. These Axolotls are then tamed such as when players feed wolf bones or stray fish.
