They will only look like their parents if they are purebred cattle, such as purebred Hereford or Fleckvieh that aren't going to risk having calves being a different colour or coat colouration. A calf won't look like its parents if it's red and both parents are black. A calf also won't look like it's parents if one is a Hereford and the other is a Black Angus. Same thing with Shorthorns: If the bull is red and the cow is white, the calf will come out as roan. Many, many examples exist out there, making the answer being sometimes, but not all the time.

Bear calves could be referred to those calves that have such thick fluffy hair that they look like little bears with four legs; these are often referred to yak calves, Highland calves, or Galloway calves, all of which are born with thick long hair.
