Copper Golem Leash Disappears Upon Oxidation to Statue

Steps To Reproduce

• Create a new Creative world with default settings.

• Create a Copper Golem by placing an oxidized copper block, then placing a carved pumpkin or jack o'lantern on top.

• Leash the Copper Golem by right-clicking on it with a Lead in your hand.

• Run the command /tick sprint 3d to accelerate the oxidation process.

• Wait for the Copper Golem to fully oxidize and turn into a statue.

• Observe the Lead that was attached to the Copper Golem before it turned into a statue.

Observed Behavior:

When a copper golem is leashed by a player and subsequently transforms into a statue due to full oxidation, the lead (or leash) that was previously attached to it disappears entirely. This behavior is inconsistent with typical interactions involving leashed entities in Minecraft, where leads typically remain attached unless explicitly broken or the entity dies.

Expected Behavior:

When a copper golem is leashed by a player and subsequently transforms into a statue due to full oxidation, the lead should remain attached to the golem. The expected behavior is that the lead does not disappear; instead, it should either stay visibly attached to the statue or convert into a lead knot at the statue's location
