When lightning strikes, any nearby items are instantly deleted. This means that mobs killed by lightning will not drop their items, which includes turtles dropping bowls.
Steps to reproduce:
Enter a world in creative
Obtain turtle spawn egg from the inventory
Obtain a channeling trident
Place some turtles in an area
Run the command /weather thunder
Throw the trident at one of the turtles
Notice how none of the turtles dropped anything
Expected outcome:
Lightning wouldn't destroy items that mobs drop so that we can get special drops such as the turtle's bowl
Observed outcome:
Lightning destroys items, meaning any mob killed by lightning won't drop anything.
