Okay, yes, IN REAL LIFE bears do sometimes get a bum rap. Mostly because stupid Darwin Award contestants think they are just big dumb animals when they are high-level omnivorous predators, nearly as skilled as primates at getting into things. Grizzlies and polar bears are the most aggressive, too (don't let those Coca-Cola ads fool you; polar bears will treat you like a snack if they're hungry).

In H&H, they're terrifying. They can outrun you in most terrain, and do lots of damage. Safest place to be is in a boat, offshore.


We should be able to tame bears and ride them into the sunset or as weapons of war! How badass would you feel riding a bear and bringing terror upon thy enemies!

Should have pets!

Bears, Sharks, and Wolves. All get bad raps because little timmy wanted to pet one of them. out in the woods/sea, which no one else arounds besides maybe little suzy.

Are you familiar with Wojtek, the Polish War Bear?

Search Wikipedia if you're not. :)

These furry fuckers seem to have no respect for Enders attack range circle though...
I got aggroed by one almost 1.5 times the radius away without any aggression from my part... Oo

You're trusting your life to what someone else thinks is the 'safe radius'? You got more balls than I do.

H&H bears are from a time when linen clad primitives wandered aimlessly in the woods and became delicious snacks. Over time, they will learn that being less aggressive is a better survival strategy when humans are around.
