William McCance Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 This is the second time a grizzly bear has suddenly appeared near my house and killed all my chickens and now I want to know. After the first time it happened I put a massive wall around my camp and it still happened, I have no idea where the bear came from. I'm curious and a little mad.

rexaar8 Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 Alright, as far as i know, bears and wolves can spawn if there is a 'naturally' grown tree around. Basically, a tree you didnt plant is around, and they can spawn sometimes ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William McCance Posted March 10 Author Report Share Posted March 10 Ok, thank you. I don't think I have any trees like that within my walls but I probably missed one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 It goes by the worldgen parameters for the region. Brown bears spawn down to something absurdly low, like 0.1 forest or something like that. If you walk through a grassy plain, not a tree, not a bush in sight, it probably qualifies as 0.1 forest. If a bear has ever spawned in the area, yeah, that's bear country, and I'm not sure it matters what you do with that block. You can probably pave every tile and it can still spawn bears. Now in 1.19, brown bears live in much colder climes, so it's easier to be south of where they spawn. Walls don't work very well -- I think they have to be 3-4 high, but I think they obey a single fence. However, they have a substantial reach "through" that fence. Leave a 1-wide gap between your outer fence and your inner fence and you should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunshineFaith Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 Probably wise to do a basic build in an area and give it a bit to see if you are in a wolf/bear spawn area. I haven't had this issue yet but now I will be thinking about that before I set up a chicken farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
