Blue bears

Blue bears (Q. "megliluini"; sing. "megliluinë") are considered monsters by many of Endor's loremasters. Unusual creatures they are found only on the southern slopes of the White Mountains particularly in the Lamedon region of Gondor. Their bluish-gray fur, unswervingly predatory attitude, and innate ability to sense other creatures set them apart from all other bears.

Blue bears are usually solitary, but they will occasionally hunt in family groups. They do not fear others unless there is a larger group involved. Often attacking without apparent provocation. Megliluini hunt whenever they are hungry and have an opportunity to kill. The frequency of their attacks is also explained by their territorial habits. Blue bears stake out territories that they defend from each other and from other predators of similar size — including Men and Elves.
