What do you call these creatures in the video game, Minecraft?

A creeper is a common hostile mob that silently approaches players and explodes. Due to their distinctive appearance and high potential for killing unwary players as well as damaging the environment and player's destruction, creepers have become one of the models in Minecraft, both among players and non-players.

Creepers are a major source of gunpowder as well as the only to obtain most music discs. When struck by lightning, a creeper becomes charged, which amplifies its explosion power and enables mob heads to be obtained.

Creepers naturally spawn in the Overworld on solid blocks with a light level of 7 or less, except in mushroom fields biomes. They spawn individually in Bedrock edition and in groups of up to four in Java edition.
