== Trivia ==
* The barnacle was originally part of [[Minecraft:Update Aquatic]]'s feature slate before being moved to the mob vote, as the developers were unsure of how it would have been received by the community.<ref name="BarnacleDevPanel"/>
* The barnacle is referenced in [[Minecraft:Terra Swoop Force]], one of the death messages joking about the player voting for it.
