What to do
Description
Have you ever had the luxury of trying bear meat? I never had the chance to try it in Gilneas, but the bears here are simply exquisite. The shardtooth bears that roam just to the south are well-marbled with fat from the cold here. I've been hunting them myself, and it's quite a lark, but I much prefer eating them! I recommend you try your hand at the hunt. Stick to the white-pelted Shardtooth bears, and the Captain will go to field to bring back any you kill.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Spray it One More Time
You'd think Rinno could have sent more than a single <race> down here to give us a hand! That freeloader... I'm gonna set this up. Head north from this room through the corridor and look for Sana. She's probably gotten herself lost in the last chamber, so check the side passages once you get there.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Owls Have It
I've been eatin' owls my whole life. Owls is good eatin', and my friend Jez agrees. I was the first one that told him to sell owl! Mister fancy-pants worgen here says bears taste better, but don't pay him no mind. You should go hunt yourself some owl.
