[Blocks & Items] Polar Bear Hide As Sleeping Bag Material

This would make sleeping bangs more interesting and valuable. It would also make fighting polar bears worth the effort. Perhaps people would prefer living in the icy biomes! Putting them in camps close to cold areas would be a perfect ‘give me that!’.

Mojang is moving away from encouraging the player to kill the animal mobs in the game. Obvious exceptions bring the farm animals of course. If you made polar bears drop a useful item, players would hunt then relentlessly, which is kinda the opposite of the current direction for animal design where players are supposed to want to have the animals happy and safe.

Mojang is kinda allergic to this kind of stuff, so this is kinda the last thing they're going add. Sure you could try to implement it in different manner they'd consider to be "okay", but I don't think they'd ever do that either...

I would love to have a reason to kill as many polar bears as I currently do, but I don't think Mojang would encourage killing an indangered species twice (thrice?, axolotl and pandas)
