	They will not climb up or down more than a one-block change in ground level at any time, which may result in a dropbear becoming trapped where there is no tree. They will also not climb a tree they're already in if it grows taller, unless one is disturbed by attacking or an attack that doesn't kill it. They will not climb past another dropbear, and will not be disturbed by another dropbear arriving above or below it.		They will not climb up or down more than a one-block change in ground level at any time, which may result in a dropbear becoming trapped where there is no tree. They will go back and fourth on the ground until they die, or a new is grown.

They will not climb past another dropbear, and will not be disturbed by another dropbear arriving above or below it.

	A dropbear in a tree will not attack a blockhead coming to attack it during the day, but may lash out at one just passing close by.		A dropbear in a tree will not attack a blockhead coming to attack it during the day, but may lash out at one just passing close by.

	It is a good idea to craft an [[ember]] and use it on the tree the dropbear is residing in. The blockhead should be ordered to set the tree on fire and immediately return into his/her home, as this prevents the dropbear from attacking if it is not set on fire. Usually the dropbear will attack the blockhead before climbing up the tree again, causing it to burn to death.

	Fighting dropbears is usually a matter of hitting them four (4) times with a fist, two with most [[tool]]s, or once with a iron [[sword]]. A non-fatal strike will usually prompt a retaliatory attack and then the dropbear will retreat to the highest point on the current tree or one nearby (if it was a ground encounter).		Fighting dropbears is usually a matter of hitting them four (4) times with a fist, two with most [[tool]]s, or once with a iron [[sword]] or better. A non-fatal strike will usually prompt a retaliatory attack and then the dropbear will retreat to the highest point on the current tree, or one nearby if it was a ground encounter.

	A blockhead can trap a dropbear by making a shallow pool of [[water]] under the dropbear's tree, so when a blockhead chops down a tree, the dropbear will not move and the blockhead has the chance to kill it without being harmed.
