Background
In Minecraft, the Mangrove Swamp is a biome in the Overworld that was introduced in the Wild Update. It is muddy and murky, and located in warmer, more humid places where you'd normally find the Swamp biome. The floor of the Mangrove Swamp biome is coated with a thick layer of mud (in fact, the mud generates all the way from the surface down to the stone).
In the Mangrove Swamp, you can find lots of warm frogs hopping around (ie: white frogs). This is also one of the biomes where you can find bees.
