Bear (Ursidae)

Long revered in myth and lore, the bear is a powerful omnivore able to stand on two feet like a human. It lives primarily in forests and swamps.  In winter bears partially hibernate.  They are excellent teachers of their young.  Though mostly nocturnal,  a mother  and her cubs will wander during the day and should be avoided. In bear country, don’t eat food

in your tent!
