The variant of naturally spawned mobs is determined by the biome they spawn in.
When bred by a Minecraft:player, a baby of these mobs will not be a variant chosen by the current biome, but instead randomly be selected from one of its parent's variants.

The temperate mobs spawn by default wherever the cold and warm variants do not.
