Himalayan Brown Bear

The Himalayan brown bear is a large bear species native to the mountain ranges of the Himalayas. These bears typically inhabit alpine meadows and rocky areas, where they forage for plants, fruits, and small animals. Adult males can weigh between 250 to 450 pounds. They are known for their thick fur, which helps them survive in cold environments. Himalayan brown bears are generally solitary animals, except for mothers with cubs. Due to habitat loss and poaching, they face threats to their population, making conservation efforts essential to their survival in the wild.
