Gobi Bear

The Gobi Bear is a rare and critically endangered subspecies of the brown bear that inhabits the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. Adapted to harsh desert conditions, it has a smaller size, lighter fur, and specializes in foraging for scarce food sources like roots, insects, and small animals. With fewer than 50 individuals believed to exist, the Gobi Bear faces threats from habitat loss, climate change, and human activities. Conservation efforts focus on protecting its habitat and ensuring the survival of this unique desert-adapted bear, making it a vital part of the Gobi Desert's ecosystem.
