Black bears are not strictly vegetarians; they are omnivorous, eating a varied diet that includes fruits, nuts, insects, and small animals. Brown bears, too, are omnivorous and have a similar diet, often consuming more meat, particularly when salmon are spawning. Both species adapt their diets based on food availability in their habitats. Therefore, neither species can be classified strictly as vegetarian.
