Bears are creatures that are found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Bears are strong and fast and able to chase down the average adventurer. They are weaker than other bears in Skyrim yet still formidable. They can be found in the more mountainous areas of Skyrim, usually around Ivarstead and other hilly regions. It is possible to contract Bone Break Fever from them. The Animal Extermination quest may require a bear to be killed.
In addition to the standard Bear, there are two subspecies known as the Cave Bear and the Snow Bear, both of which are stronger.

Behavior
Edit
Bears can be found sleeping or resting, sometimes in the middle of a road or path. One of the locations is Honeystrand Cave. This presents the option to sneak around the beast, or to perform a sneak attack to gain the upper hand in the ensuing fight. Bears roar to warn of their presence before attacking, and are docile until one gets too close.
Bears are often seen attacking other animals such as Elk or Goats. But this does not mean that the player can sneak around the bear when it is attacking another enemy. Sometimes both the bear and, (if it is a enemy), the other animal will both attack the Dragonborn. Bears prefer mountains, but some may be found in the tundra.
Sub-species

Tactics
Edit
- As bears are strictly melee fighters, the safest way to kill a Bear is to stealthily shoot it from a distance.
- Bears cannot attack while in water, so crossing a body of water when a bear is hostile, or using Unrelenting Force to force a bear into water, allows easy hits with magic or bows.
Loot
Edit
- Bear Pelt — tanning ingredient
- Bear Claws — alchemy ingredient
- Occasional minor treasure, gold, gem or ring.
Trivia
Edit
- A Bear is the sigil of Ulfric Stormcloak, his supporters, and the city of Windhelm.
- Cave bears are based on the extinct animal of the same name.
- Snow bears are possibly based on polar bears.
- Werebears appear in The Elder Scrolls V: Dragonborn.
