A '''dropbear''' is one of three dangerous ground [[:Category:Creature|animals]] in the game. A single dropbear won't cause significant trouble for a healthy [[Blockhead]]. They may cause problems for the wounded or when multiple dropbears are encountered. Fortunately, they are nocturnal creatures that hang out near the tops of [[tree]]s when not active. They are sometimes found on the ground when traveling between trees, but seldom during the day. Their eyes glow red, making them easier to avoid. Starting in [[Game updates/20130207|version 1.1]], dropbears are killed if the tree they are in is burned down. Dropbears will also drown in water if put in such a way.

Dropbears spawn near [[Pine Tree|pine trees]]. However, they can also be seen up on the trunk of other types of [[tree]]s.

Fighting dropbears is usually a matter of hitting them four (4) times with a fist, two with most [[Tool]]s, or once with a iron [[sword]]. A non-fatal strike will usually prompt a retaliatory attack and then the dropbear will retreat to the highest point on the current tree or one nearby (if it was a ground encounter).

A Blockhead can trap a dropbear by making a shallow pool of water under the dropbear's tree, so when a blockhead chops down a tree, the dropbear will not move and has the chance to kill it without being harmed.

Starting in [[Game updates/20130207|version 1.1]], dropbears are killed if the tree they are in is burned down. Dropbears will also drown in water if confined there with no [[air]].
