Bear species

Bears are large mammals belonging to the family Ursidae, found in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. They have powerful bodies, strong limbs, and thick fur, adapted for various climates. There are several species, including the polar bear, brown bear, black bear, and pandas. Bears are omnivorous, eating plants, berries, insects, and fish, depending on their habitat. They generally lead solitary lives, except for mothers with cubs or during certain seasons. Bears play important roles in their ecosystems as predators and seed dispersers, and while some populations are thriving, others face threats from habitat loss and climate change.
