Black bear

Black Bears can be found in forests in RuneScape including south east of Varrock and just east outside Ardougne. They can also be found between the goblin village and the dwarf encampment (below the mind altar ruins) or the Wilderness. They always drop bones, bear fur, and raw bear meat.

They can be killed in the place of bears for a bears slayer assignment. A glitch often occurs when the bear is slain, reappearing for about half a second before the player.

Each item a bear drops can be of use, specifically for new players. The fur can be sold to a fur trader for 12 coins, the meat can be cooked and eaten to heal 3 Hitpoints, and the bones can be buried for Prayer experience. It is also recommended for players combat levels 20-25 to fight them for combat experience--Wikilover 22:31, 11 November 2007 (UTC)Wikilover
