Polar Bear

Where to catch the Polar Bear

The Polar Bear lives in Winter (zone 8 of 17), around the middle of the zone. It is number 5 of 8 in the Winter index. A full-strength throw needs roughly 1,250 – 1,500 Throw Power to land in Winter.

Foods that land here: Fillet ($57T), Steak (~$1.5Qa). A higher-tier food pushes the roll toward the rarer end of the Winter list, so the newest food you own is always the best bait.

Any throw that lands around the middle of the zone can produce it. If you are hunting it for the index, lower your throw strength with the gear icon until the food lands on that spot – distance inside a zone decides which animals can come.

Is it worth keeping?

• A plain Polar Bear earns 12x a plain Fenrir, the best animal from Taiga.
• The best plain earner here is the Saber-tooth Tiger ($3.8T/s), 3.2x this one.
• The first animal in Prehistoric Forest, the Pterodactyl, makes 10x as much – once your throws reach Prehistoric Forest, replace it.
• Keep it longer only if it rolled a strong mutation or size (see the table below) or you need it for the index.

Polar Bear income by mutation and size

A plain Polar Bear makes $1.2T/s. Mutations and sizes multiply that number, and the two stack. The table below multiplies the plain income by the multipliers I have measured (Gold ×1.5, Diamond ×3, Emerald ×5, Ruby ×10, Rainbow ×20; Big ×2, Large ≈×4.3, Huge ≈×9, Colossal ≈×18.5, Gigantic ≈×37). Treat the size columns as estimates – real catches land a little above or below. With the 2x Cash gamepass every number doubles.
