minecraft:behavior.panic is an entity component: it goes in the components object of a custom mob, or in one of its component groups. Makes the mob run around in a hurry, away from whatever hurt it. Animals like cows and chickens use it when hit.

damage_sources | List | "[campfire, fire, fire_tick, freezing, lava, lightning, magma, soul_campfire, temperature, entity_attack, entity_explosion, fireworks, magic, projectile, ram_attack, sonic_boom, wither, mace_smash]" | Which kinds of damage make the mob panic, such as "fire" or "entity_attack". |
force | Boolean | "false" | If true, the mob keeps panicking until it can't move or the goal is removed. |
ignore_mob_damage | Boolean | "false" | If true, damage from other mobs never causes panic, even if listed in damage_sources. |
