In 99 Nights in the Forest, taming the Polar Bear is challenging yet rewarding because it is one of the best companions you can have. However, this creature is not easy to tame. It is strong, aggressive, and lives in one of the coldest, most dangerous regions of the forest. If you want to make this animal your ally, you need the right prep, items, and strategy. Here’s everything you must do.
Where to Find the Polar Bear (Location)
Polar Bears can be found in the Snow Biome, located in the Polar Bear Cave. You’ll recognize the area by its thick snow, icy lakes, and constant blizzards. Be sure to wear Warm Clothes because they will protect you from freezing and losing your ability to sprint, which is crucial. Plus, take Healing items like Medkits, Bandages, Cake or Hearty Stew since you may end up taking damage.
Before attempting to tame a Polar Bear, stock up on essential items:
- x5 Ribs
- x10 Stew – This item can be cooked from various items such as carrots, corn, apples, steaks, and pumpkins in a Crock Pot.
Once you’re at the location, remember to clear nearby aggressive creatures first because wolves and frost boars may interrupt the taming process.
How to Tame a Polar Bear in 99 Nights in the Forest
- Approach slowly. Sneak up from behind or the side because Polar Bears can easily get aggravated if you approach them head-on.
- Start playing the Strong Taming Flute and feed it.
- Keep repeating the taming process until all faces turn green.
Some things to keep in mind:
- Attempt the taming during the daytime when visibility is better.
- Bring a tamed wolf to distract the bear if things go wrong.
- If you fail, retreat and try again later because the bear will respawn after a while.
- You can also lure the Polar Bear to your base to make things easier.
