Polar bear

Huge solitary omnivores found in the coldest biomes. Although virtually identical to the Grizzly bear, polar bears are more dangerous to your colonists simply because of the much more food-scarce environments they inhabitat. In Ice sheet biomes in particular, once a polar bear appears on the map it will not take it long to start targeting colonists and their animals for want of anything else to feed on.

Taming

Polar bears can be tamed wild, randomly join your colony in an event, or be bought pre-tamed from a trader.

Attacks

Polar bears have two attacks: scratch (paw) and bite (teeth). Both attacks apply a stun for 7 seconds on their first strike when hunting.

Training

This animal can be trained as follows:
