Behaviour
Bears are dangerous game. They roam widely, feed heavily, and can charge if surprised, wounded or pushed too close. They have a strong nose but are less wary of noise than deer, so they are easier to approach and harder to stop.
Daily routine (need zones)
Like every species, the Eurasian Brown Bear splits its day between feeding, drinking and resting zones. These are the published windows (in-game time). Find the zones on your save, then be there at the right hour.

How to Hunt the Eurasian Brown Bear
- Carry a heavy calibre that covers the bear’s class, and keep a second shot chambered.
- Use a tripod, tree stand or tent when you are sitting on a need zone; it keeps you safer if one charges.
- Never follow a wounded bear closely in thick cover. Back off, reload and approach from another angle.
- Feeding zones in berry patches, meadows and along water are good places to wait.
- Trophies: only max-difficulty animals can reach diamond. Check the trophy rating with binoculars, use in-class ammo and kill with one clean shot to pass the harvest check.
