But as everyone knows this is not what we got in 1.19. The regular swamp was left pretty much unchanged, frogs have a different model and different colors that barely resemble a typical frog, and mangrove trees look completely different.  <\/p>\n<p>Biome Vote Swamp makes the swamp update into what it should&#8217;ve been, fixing all the previously mentioned problems and more!<\/p>\n<p># Changes<br \/>\n## Frogs<br \/>\n&#8211; The frog model has been replaced with a new one that looks much more like a frog and matches the one in the video (requires EMF). The new model is also compatible with frog textures from other resources packs.<br \/>\n&#8211; A typical frog is green, not orange, and it was green in the video, but the vanilla cold frog is green, so all the frog colors have been redesigned to match real-world frog species. The temperate frog now resembles a bullfrog, the warm frog now resembles a mangrove frog, and the cold frog now resembles a wood frog. (fun fact: wood frogs can survive in the coldest climate of any known frog species)<br \/>\n&#8211; Froglight mechanics are unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>![New Frog](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/ccDPVgCh\/images\/2e9518f18bef2edd16a54796c53bf2d6afc4fb33.webp)<br \/>\n&#8211; Frogs can also now spawn in all river biomes -with cold frogs now spawning naturally in frozen rivers- and very rarely in lush caves (requires Lithostitched).<br \/>\n&#8211; Frogs can now spawn on moss blocks, clay, mangrove leaves, and anything they prefer to jump to.<br \/>\n&#8211; Cold and warm frog variants are now used when a frog spawns in a biome where cold and warm variant farm animals can spawn respectively.<\/p>\n<p>## Mangrove Trees<br \/>\n&#8211; The shape of mangrove trees has been changed to match the one in the video.<\/p>\n<p>![New Mangrove Tree](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/ccDPVgCh\/images\/6f8e641bd1ee085ed6a1a5f18cef679ebf7427ae.webp)<\/p>\n<p>## Swamps<br \/>\n&#8211; The &#8220;swamp oak&#8221; trees that generate in swamps have been replaced with mangrove trees, just like in the video.<br \/>\n&#8211; The color of leaves in swamps now matches their color in mangrove swamps (requires Lithostitched).<\/p>\n<p>![Swamp Biome](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/ccDPVgCh\/images\/8a1046be8a5d6831ef90d92a91ced258b14529c2.webp)<\/p>\n<p>## Mangrove Swamps<br \/>\n&#8211; Witch huts can now spawn here.<br \/>\n&#8211; Mud no longer generates at or higher than y=64.
