Bears: adorable at a distance. This is true in Minecraft, just as it is in real life. They may look huggable and furry, but they are full of teeth, and not too fussy about what, or who, constitutes a meal.

Marsh Davies[1]

Polar bears are usually neutral mobs.

Spawning

Polar bears are found in ice plains, ice mountains and ice spikes biomes.

They are 1.3 blocks wide and 1.4 blocks tall.

Behavior

Polar bears can exist in a passive, neutral, or hostile state. The cubs are passive; adults are neutral, but they will become hostile if attacked. If a cub is attacked, all adults within a 41×21×41 cuboid will become hostile towards the attacker, regardless of difficulty (although in peaceful difficulty, their attacks will do zero damage to players). Attacking an adult who is within a 16×8×16 cuboid of a cub will also provoke other adults within a 21×21×21 cuboid of the attacked adult. Polar bears can be accidentally provoked by other mobs.

Polar bears attack by rearing on their back legs and then mauling down on the attacker with their front paws. Their swimming speed is faster than the player's, making them difficult to get away from if they are attacking.

Polar bear cubs' growth cannot be sped up.

Drops

When killed, a polar bear has a 34 chance to drop 0–2 raw fish, and a 14 chance to drop 0–2 raw salmon. These are always raw, even if the polar bear is on fire when it is killed.

Data values

Polar Bears have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the mob. Their entity ID is polar_bear.

'''Feathers''' are items dropped by [[chicken]]s and [[parrot]]s, as well as tamed [[cats]] as morning gifts.

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===

Adult [[chicken]]s drop 0–2 feathers upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 with Looting III.

[[Parrot]]s drop 1–2 feathers upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 1–5 with Looting III.

A [[fox]] sometimes spawns holding a feather, which always drops upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a [[food]] item, causing the fox to drop the feather in favor of the food.

=== Natural generation ===

{{LootChestItem|feather}}

=== Cat gifts ===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}

Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance of giving the [[player]] a "morning gift", and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be a feather.

== Usage ==

=== Helmet ===
<div style='float:right'></div>
While a feather cannot be equipped in the head slot in [[Survival]] mode, equipping it using commands causes it to appear completely upright unlike other items.

{{Item
| title = Ankle Monitor
| image = Ankle Monitor.png

}}

The '''Ankle monitor''' was a joke foot item.

== Usage ==
Ankle monitors were equipped in the boots slot. In survival mode, when equipped, it could not be taken off. However, players in Creative mode are unaffected.

When equipped, the player would be afflicted with {{EffectLink|Slowness}} I.

During the night, being a certain number of blocks from the world spawn, above a certain minimum,{{checkthecode|how much?}} would prompt the following message in chat: "CURFEW WARNING! You are violating your house arrest! Get back by [distance] meters!"

If in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], a different set of messages would be cycled through which can be seen in the section below.

=== Nether and End messages ===
* CURFEW WARNING! You are violating your house arrest! Uuuh... where are you anyway?
* CURFEW WARNING! Hello, are you there?
* CURFEW WARNING! I'm sure you have important things to do, but you need to go back!
* CURFEW WARNING! We're lonely back home!
* CURFEW WARNING! By "we" I mean I. I'm lonely.
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok enough games... GET BACK RIGHT NOW!
* CURFEW WARNING! LAST WARNING!
* CURFEW WARNING! LASTEST WARNING (really now)
* CURFEW WARNING! ...
* CURFEW WARNING! So... Where are you?
* CURFEW WARNING! Having a good day?
* CURFEW WARNING! Did you see that monster over there?
* CURFEW WARNING! Give it a whack, if you would be so kind.
* CURFEW WARNING! Teheee...
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok, enough of this!
* CURFEW WARNING! Last straw!
* CURFEW WARNING! Now you die.
* CURFEW WARNING! Boom!
* CURFEW WARNING! Hehe, fun right?
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok, you will not hear anything more from me now!
* CURFEW WARNING! You'll be as lonely as I am.
* CURFEW WARNING! How does that feel?

{{Item

| renewable = Yes

}}
'''Wheat''' is an [[item]] primarily obtained by harvesting fully-grown [[Wheat Seeds|wheat crops]]. It is used for [[crafting]] as well as to feed certain animals.

== Obtaining ==

=== Natural generation ===

{{LootChestItem|wheat}}

=== Farming ===

{{main|Tutorials/Crop farming}}

When a fully-grown wheat crop is harvested, it drops 1 wheat and 1 to 4 [[wheat seeds]] ({{frac|2|5|7}} per crop harvested on average). A wheat crop has a total of eight stages (0-7) from the time it is planted until it can be harvested. If a crop is harvested before it is fully grown, it just drops one seed. Wheat needs light to grow; a seed is destroyed if planted without light. Harvesting with a [[Fortune]]-enchanted tool increases the number of seeds dropped but does not increase the yield of wheat.

=== Crafting ===

{{Crafting
|Hay Bale
|Output= Wheat,9
|type= Material
}}

=== Drops ===
A [[fox]] sometimes spawns holding wheat, which it always drops upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a [[food]] item, causing the fox to drop the wheat.

== Usage ==

=== Food ===

[[File:New Cattle.png|thumb|Using wheat to lead a cow.]]
When wheat is held, it causes nearby [[cow]]s, [[sheep]], [[goat]]s and [[mooshroom]]s to follow the player, until either the player stops holding the wheat or goes too far away from the animal, thus leading them to lose interest.

Wheat may be used to [[breed]] cows, sheep, goats, and mooshrooms by first herding two of them together and then {{control|using}} the wheat on them to begin "Love Mode."

Wheat can heal a [[horse]] {{hp|1}} health or lower its temper by 3% when attempting to tame it. It can also decrease the time it takes for a foal to grow by 20 seconds.

Similarly, wheat can heal a [[llama]] {{hp|2}} health, and it decreases the time it takes a baby llama to grow by 10 seconds.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===

Novice-level farmer [[Villager|villagers]] have a 25%{{only|bedrock}} or 40%{{only|java}} chance to buy 20 wheat for one [[emerald]].

=== Composting ===
Placing wheat into a [[composter]] has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1. A stack of wheat yields an average of 5.94 [[bone meal]].

A '''brewing stand''' is a [[block]] used for [[brewing]] [[potion]]s using [[Glass Bottle|bottles]] and suitable ingredients. It also serves as a [[cleric]]'s [[job site block]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Breaking ===

A brewing stand can be obtained using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing {{in|JE}}, while it drops itself {{in|BE}}.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Brewing Stand|Pickaxe|Wood|foot=1}}

=== Natural generation ===

Brewing stands generate in [[end ship]]s. They have two [[potion of Healing|Instant Health II potions]] in their holders. 

A brewing stand also generates in the basement of [[igloo]]s with a [[splash potion of Weakness]] in it.

Brewing stands can generate without potions in [[village]] churches.

== Usage ==
[[File:Brewing Stand GUI.png|thumb|right|176px|Brewing stand GUI {{in|java}}]]

By default, the interface  of a brewing stand is labeled "Brewing Stand", but this name can be customized by naming it in an [[anvil]] before placing it.

Brewing stands cannot be pushed by [[piston]]s {{in|java}}.

=== Brewing ===
{{main|Brewing}}
The main purpose of brewing stands is to allow for the [[brewing]] of [[potion]]s. Its interface can be opened by pressing {{control|use}} on them.

Brewing stands need [[blaze powder]] as fuel. Each piece brews 20 batches of potions, with each stage of brewing counting separately. Unlike [[furnace]]s, there is no time limit; fuel is consumed only when there are [[Glass Bottle|bottles]] and an ingredient to brew into it.

Brewing stands interact with [[hopper]]s as follows:

* They accept brewing ingredients from hoppers pointing down into the top.
* Any valid potion recipe can be preloaded for "hands-free" brewing of a complex recipe, with the [[Nether Wart|nether wart]] falling through into the stand for the first step.
* Bottles and fuel are accepted from hoppers pointing into the side.
* Finished products can be pulled out by hoppers below, but each stage of brewing counts as a batch of "finished" potions.

{{IN|education}}, elements can be combined in the brewing stand to make the [[medicine]] potions: antidote, elixir, eye drops, and tonic.

=== Changing profession ===
If a village has a brewing stand that has not been claimed by a villager, any villager who hasn't already picked a [[job site]] block in the village has a chance to change their profession into cleric.

=== Light source ===
Brewing stands emit a light level of 1.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Even when the brewing stand is not in use, there is still smoke coming out of the top of it.
* In ''[[Java Edition]]'', when a brewing stand is broken, particles from a bottle appear, even if no bottle is in the stand.
* No matter what potion (including water bottles) is in the stand it always looks like a full red bottle.
* Brewing stands always face east, no matter what direction they are placed.
* According to [[Michael Stoyke|Searge]], for thematic reasons, a brewing stand was added to the basement of the [[igloo]]. Because of this, blaze powder was required for fuel to preserve game progression. In this way, the player is prevented from using it before going to the Nether.<ref>https://minecraft.net/en-us/article/meet-blaze</ref>
