One method to get rid of bears safely

Don’t take any risks hunting bears, save your family, become a hero in following this recipe.

What you need :
- a bow
- three arrows
- a backpack (optional, but more convenient)
- a good yum chain or a pie (follow Morti’s excellent explanations https://onehouronelife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=7323 to which I would add : eat when you’re 2-3 pips and profit you’re in town to eat something you can’t take away/find in the wild like stew, turkey, turkey broth… Life is easier  with a good yum)
- a bear
- patience

Lure the bear in an open area and find an item to stand on it. As long as you stay on the item, you’re invincible. Move away from trees as they block walking and bear may take longer to come close to you.

Wait for the bear to stop on the very left/right or up/down tile next to you and shot an arrow.
Wait for it to move again, as soon as it stops drop your bow on the opposite tile and reload.
Repeat : wait for the bear to be next to you, shot, reload. Take your time to do that, as the bear will pass in front of you and you may click it or an empty tile (and move, and get bitten, and die).

If the bear moves diagonally from you, wait for it to move again, as soon it does move quickly to another item, opposite direction. Repeat until you get the bear to move up/down or left/right from your safe spot.

Remember the more arrows in its body, the faster he is. You’ll have to be quick, but no panic, you still have time to reload. If not, wait for it to move again and run away in the opposite direction without looking back.

Now you have shot your three arrows, the bear collapses a few tiles away. Get back your equipment, go back to town  to announce your victory. Or go for another bear to brag even more when you’ll return. Just don't forget to check on your yum.

If there are several bears in one place, focus on one. Three arrows are required to take it down and you have only three arrows. Lure it away from others, kill it, repeat for other bears.

You may fail. I have failed, and still do sometimes when I’m in too much of a hurry. That’s how we learn ! Try to not panic and be sure of what you click on.

And sometimes, you get a good-luck charm so that’s even easier
