Reproducing
- Place a beehive, spawn bees near it
- Set weather to rain or time to midnight and wait for bees to enter hive
- Detonate TNT near the hive
- Run the following command:
/data get entity @n[type=bee] Health
- Returned value will be 10f (their maximum health)
Expected Behavior
Bees should be killed or have their health reduced. Killed bees should be released from the hive and then killed so their death animation is shown to the player (so the bees don't seem to disappear as in MC-159843).
Still in 19w35a.
Confirmed for 19w37a. This, of course, happens with creepers as well.
