[MCPE-146727] Animals and villagers disappearing

Sometimes when I exit then re-enter a world on pocket edition half or sometimes all of my animals or villagers disappear without a trace. This is very frustrating for me, since I had 4 max level villagers and around 50 of my best horses disappear.

When I exit/enter my world, I loose about 3~4 villages. Always located at the same beds.

This happens to me too. I have a long term running world I play on with my friends, and I have put a lot of time into it. The past few times i have logged in tamed animals like wolves and cats will disappear, armour stands and villagers too. Luckily i made copies times before this and was able to keep my world, but lose some progress.

It's gotten so bad for me I just about threw my switch. I've lost over 60 villagers, 40 all at once with 10 cats, 7 sheep/cows, and 13 different minecarts the first time. Second time another 20 villagers, another 13 cats, and another 10 minecarts. This has effectively broken every single one of my farms, some before I could even finish them. Until this is fixed It's pointless to even play because you'll just have to keep replacing any entity every time you play.

It's not just happening on the Pocket Edition, it also seems to be happening to me on the Windows 10 Edition. Mobs that are spawned in the world like animals also disappear on there when you move out of where they spawned. It doesn't apply to villagers, even ones you spawn with eggs. They don't disappear.

I think https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE is possibly another report on this issue.
