When slimes spawn in an area with dense mangrove trees and vines, the climb the vines and get stuck in the trees.

I will try to get a good video next time I see it happen. They can't get down even when they try to path find to attack a player. I think it;s because the vines are so dense in the mangroves that they can't find a spot where there is no vines to hop down. It seems to affect the larger slimes more often.
Please provide a video showcasing the issue, and seed and coordinates in which this issue was observed.

I've been trying for a week to get a video of this and cannot seem to recreate it. I am playing in seed -5721758910070358785 in the mangrove swamp located around 305, 61, 664.
I have only seen them stuck that one time. I think it was just because the vines were so dense in that spot that when they tried to hop off the were just jumping into another vine. I have been clearing my vines out to use them and haven't seen that happen again.
Most mobs are able to climb ladders and vines--see MCPE-281. They generally don't intentionally pathfind by climbing, but if they are on a climbable block and happen to move upward they will climb. Since slimes move by hopping they are probably more likely to get caught in vines.
Can you upload a video of this happening? They are always stuck in the trees or they can choose to hop off of them?
