How to tame polar bears in Minecraft

IN Minecraft many animals can be tamed and bred, such as chickens, sheep, horses and even pandas. For some time now, it became possible to take care of polar bears. Taming polar bears is not an easy task compared to other animals, but it is quite possible.

It should be noted right away that polar bears can only be found in the ice biomes of Minecraft. They are found, as a rule, in small groups consisting of both adults and cubs. Therefore, the optimal and simplest solution would be to search for single targets, since individuals with cubs are more aggressive. Taming itself consists in feeding the animal with a variety of fish, and, therefore, it is worth stocking up on fish first.

How to fish in Minecraft

If you don’t have a fishing rod at your disposal, then it can be created from sticks and threads. It can also be obtained from random chests, villages and castle ruins. Interestingly, there are also enchanted fishing rods. Such bits can be found in the underwater ruins after drinking the water breath potion.

It is recommended to fish in reservoirs with clean water, which is exposed to direct sunlight or moonlight. In the absence of light and during rain, the bite time is doubled. Each modification of the fishing rod speeds up the bite time by 5 seconds. That is, for maximum effect, it is worth using an enchanted fishing rod in clear weather in open-air reservoirs.

Polar bears prefer salmon, but they won’t give up other fish either. It is worth noting that felines and dolphins can also be tamed with fish. For those who don’t want to go fishing, there is a more barbaric way to get salmon. To do this, you need to kill a polar bear, in whose loot you can find this fish.

Taming polar bears

To tame a polar bear directly, you need to feed it a few fish. When an indicator in the form of hearts appears above the bear’s head, this will mean that it is tamed. After that, the pet can be used as a mount, an assistant in attack and defense.
