Sun bears are found in tropical rainforests in Southeast Asia. They are the smallest member of the bear family.
Smallest member (Helarctos malayanus) of the bear family (Ursidae), found in South Asian forests. Nocturnal and tree-climbing, the sun bear weighs 60 - 140 lbs (27 - 64 kg) and is 3 - 4 ft (1 - 1.2 m) long, with a 2-in. (5-cm) tail, large forepaws, and short black fur with an orange-yellow crescent on the chest. It uses its long, curved claws to tear or dig for insect nests, particularly those of bees and termites. It also eats fruit, honey, and small vertebrates. The sun bear is shy and intelligent; legends say that its chest crescent represents the sun.

What is the cruelest way that moon bears are threatened?
Wild moon bears are very lucky, because when they are captured by the Chinese... Chinese people capture moon bears, and put them in tiny cages. Their stomachs are opened up without an anesthetic, and a kind of "thing" takes their bile out of them. They have to live like this for years of their life, in unspeakable pain, until they finally die horribly. (I am not insulting the Chinese, I am just giving you information.)
How Many Different Bears Are There In The World?
There are 8 species currently accepted as bears: North America has American black bears, polar bears, and brown/grizzly bears (which are also in Europe and Asia). South America has only spectacled bears. Asia has sun bears, Eurasian black bears (locally called moon bears), sloth bears, and panda bears. In the past, there has been debate over whether pandas were bears or should be split out, but currently they are considered bears. Brown bears used to live in the Atlas mountains of northern Africa centuries ago, but in modern times no bears live in Africa. Australia has koala bears, but they are marsupials, not true bears.
