Mobs of certain sized disappear before other mobs while leashed to them.
The expected result is that the mobs while leashed together disappear within the same range to avoid visual bugs such as mobs seemingly attached to thin air.
steps to reproduce:
summon two mobs with a big size difference (for example a chicken and cow)
connect them with a leash
move a distance away until the chicken disappears
It now seems as if the cow is attached to nothing

I believe this also happens when unleashed, if both were at the same distance far away from the player. This difference was already reported in MC-18959 but was resolved as WAI many years ago.
