These [[:Category:Creature|creatures]] are the most (and currently only) dangerous animal in the game. A single dropbear won't cause significant trouble for a healthy [[Blockhead]]. They can cause problems for the wounded or when multiple dropbears are encountered. Fortunately, they are nocturnal creatures that hang out near the tops of [[Tree|trees]] when not active. They are sometimes found on the ground when traveling between trees, but seldom during the day. Their eyes glow at night, making them easier to avoid.

Fighting dropbears is usually a matter of hitting them four (4) times with a fist, two with a [[Sword|bronze sword]] or [[Spear|flint spear]], or once with a steel sword. A non-fatal strike will prompt a retaliatory attack and then the dropbear will retreat to the highest point on the current or nearby tree.

There is no real world "dropbear." The name is used for a fictional creature supposedly living in Australia that resembles a large, carnivorous koala.
