Druid wildshape into bear question

[Ricochet]

So how exactly are attacks handled when a druid transforms into say a bear.

Example: 5th level druid turns into a black bear. Does the druid get all three natural attacks as a bear, or does he only get the number of attacks that his class levels BAB defines?

Also, if someone has a good thread on the revised alter self or polymorph with additional examples and so forth regarding all aspects of these spells, please post a link.

When the druid wildhapes into a black bear he gets the bear's natural attacks, with his BaB ... so:
- 2 claws +7 (+3 bab +4 str)
- bite +2 (+3 bab +4 str -5 secondary)

I need the location of this exact ruling in the PHB please.

It's not in the PHB, it's in the back of the Monster Manual.

With wild shape, you become a bear. You switch from humanoid to animal. Which means you also get all of that animal's attacks and abilities.

EDIT - You don't get Ex and Su abilities, as per polymorph, but you get racial skills, movement, and the like. Attacks would fall under that.
