A '''Dropbear''' is the most (and currently only) dangerous ground [[:Category:Creature|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]]s 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.

Dropbears are killed if the tree they are in is burned down.

Take care not to [[sleep]] or [[meditate]] when near trees and when logging or burning down trees. Check for dropbear inhabitants first.

During the day, a dropbear prefers to remain clinging to the trunk of a tree, often near or at the top. If for any reason one ends up on the ground, it will search for a suitable tree to climb. They will share a tree with another dropbear.

Fighting dropbears is usually a matter of hitting them four (4) times with a fist, two with most [[:Category:Tool|tools]], or once with a steel [[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).

Killing a dropbear can result in [[leather]] and/or [[fur]] being dropped. These items can also be found at the base of a tree when a drop bear dies of natural causes.
