This Minecraft tutorial explains the NBT tags (formerly called data tags) that you can use for a zoglin in Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20.
Background
In Minecraft Java Edition 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20, the entity value for a zoglin is zoglin
. The zoglin
entity has a unique set of data tags that can be used in Minecraft commands such as: /summon and /data.
What are NBT tags (formerly called Data Tags)?
NBT tags allow you to set certain properties of an entity (such as zoglin
). The NBT tag is always surrounded in {} such as {CustomName:"\"Tusks\""}. If there is more than one NBT tag used in a game command, the NBT tags are separated by a comma such as {CustomName:"\"Tusks\"", Health:50.0f}.

Target Selectors
Before we finish discussing data tags, let's quickly explore how to use the @e target selector. The @e target selector allows you to target entities in your commands. If you use the type=zoglin
value, you can target zoglins:
@e[type=zoglin]
Target Selector Examples
To change the name of the nearest zoglin to Tusks:
/data merge entity @e[type=zoglin,limit=1,sort=nearest] {CustomName:"\"Tusks\""}
To kill all zoglins:
/kill @e[type=zoglin]
