Aren't you supposed to ride them with a saddle? Seems like it thinks that the saddle is there.

@Adric Blake
For the horses, probably. But for the donkeys, I can see the player hovering even with the saddle. The game might think the donkeys are as tall as the horses, wich is false, hence the bug.

Can confirm for horses and zombie horses. Skeleton horses seem to be unaffected.

With the new horse model now it only affects zombie horses

Confirmed in 1.16.1.

it's actually invalid now, because zombie horses are not supported

Llama was fixed in 21w42a
This bug should not be marked as Invalid, since donkeys, horses, etc... were linked to this bug as duplicate. Although those mobs are supported!
