The fastest bear is the Black Bear, followed by the Brown Bear, and then the Polar Bear. In short, the larger the bear the slower it is. Keep in mind that even the slowest bear can still move it out at about 30 mph. The Brown Bear can run approximately 40 mph. Bears can even run sideways and still beat the fastest human runner.
Black bears are surefooted and graceful and run at speeds up to 25-30 mph which is about 40-50 km/h. Young, lean black bears may run up to 30 mph (48 km/hr), but average bears are more dangerous for their strength than their speed.
So if you are camping or hiking and you do encounter a black bear, then you shouldn't run because the bear can run faster. The best advice is to seek shelter or assistance. If you pretend to be dead (play dead), they might ignore you. They may tear up your tent looking for food, but they probably won't tear you up.
A grizzly bear was once clocked while running at 41 miles per hour by a ranger in Denali National Park, Alaska.
National Geographic says Grizzlies can reach up to 56 km/h = 34 mph, which is faster than Usain Bolt.
How fast can a Alaska black bear run an hour
all i know is that a full grown bear can run as fast as a horse so i imagine it could run 100 meters pretty fast. A bear can run 100 yards in 6 seconds, over uneven ground! A bear can out run, out swim and out climb a man.
2 mph
The Greyhound is the fastest dog and can run at speeds of 45mph!!
4mph
NO! do not run from a bear, it will trigger their predatory instincts and they will chase and catch you. Running downhill, or anywhere for that matter, will not do you any good. Bears can run up to 35mph, which is nearly twice as fast as the fastest human. If you do find yourself face to face with a bear, remain calm and stand your ground.
The Kodiak bear can run up to 35 mph.
sloth bears are slow
2m/sec
No, I can't run that fast, but thanks for asking.
64km/h They are the fastest birds on land.
"Sprint" means to run as fast as you can over a short distance.
