Black Bear

The Black Bear is a medium-sized bear. Typically adult males averages a weight of 60-250 kg, while females average 41-170 kg. They range from anywhere between 120-200 cm in head-and-body length, and 70-105 cm in shoulder height. Their fur is black, as the name indicates, but some develop a white "crescent moon" blazed spot on the chest.

About
Black bears are primarily omnivores; but their diet varies greatly, depending on the season and location. They typically live in largely forested areas, but do leave the forests in search of food. Sometimes they even get attracted to human communities, because of the immediate availability of food.

They are one of the lesser aggressive bear species, and more often than not, they steer clear of humans altogether. If threatened, the bear will typically try to scare you off and finally flee if unsuccessful. They will defend themselves if attacked, though.

They are known to be very dexterous, being capable of both opening screw-top jars and manipulate door latches.

They are thought to be able to reach speeds just short of 50 km/h, while running.
