animal companion and wild shape


Classes: Cleric, Druid, and Paladin


don't mean to sound cheesy but I expect questions like this frmo my players. Can wild shape which now mimics a spell be used on your animal companion. IE going underwater turn my bear into a shark.

Fortunately, no.
The animal companion's Share spells ability says:
"Share Spells (Ex): The druid may cast a spell with a target of “You” on her animal companion (as a touch range spell) instead of on herself. A druid may cast spells on her animal companion even if the spells normally do not affect creatures of the companion’s type (animal)."
Wild Shape, even if mechanically functions like the various Beast Shape, Plant Shape, and Elemental Body spells, is still a supernatural ability, and as such it cannot be shared by an animal companion.
