Since the root "gamy-" denotes marriage, meaning, among nonhumans, simply union, I suppose we should say that bears are "agamous," that is, have no marriages. Males and females meet to mate and then the female raises the cubs alone. A forced choice would be for monogamy, although this implies that the breeding couple stay together, like swans, or rejoin the same partners like penguins and many other birds. Bears don't do this.
You might notice that all my "monogamy" examples are birds. This is no accident; most avian (bird) species are monogamy, whereas most mammalian species (like bears) are polygamous or "agamous."

Do Samoans practice polygomy?
Polygamy is not commonly practiced in Samoa, where monogamous relationships are the cultural norm. While traditional practices may have included elements of polygamous arrangements in the past, contemporary Samoan society predominantly emphasizes monogamous marriages. Additionally, legal frameworks in Samoa do not support polygamous unions, further reinforcing the preference for monogamy.
