Game crash when killing/attacking spider mob

Hello, I seem to be having problems when I attack or kill spider mobs. My game crashes, and when I go back to the game it loads in the last saved point and crashes again. 

I have tried to see if this happens to other hostile mobs but it only seems to be an issue with spiders. It also only seems to happen in single player. I have also noticed that it doesn't always crash. Sometimes I am able to play for a few days without issue then it will suddenly crash. I have updated my game to the most recent one available, and updated my device but nothing seems to work. I thought that maybe it was an internet issue but why would this only happen to a specific mob. 

I'm wondering if there is a way to prevent this from happening. Thanks
