Bears

Usually, the average size can be anywhere between three or four feet in length when completely aroused. When not aroused, however, it can be anywhere from five to eight inches.

Not generally. But the black bear population is on the increase in Texas, and a sighting in the hill country has been documented. (See "Related links").

When bears go to sleep in the winter, it is called Hibernation. Squirrels, birds, and other animals who dislike the cold do the same thing.

That depends on the species of bear. A male black bear can weigh as much as 330 kg(660 lbs). A male grizzly bear can weigh as much as 600 kg(1200 lbs). A male brown bear or kodiak bear can weigh as much as 750 kg(1500 lbs). A male polar bear can weigh as much as 800 kg(1600 lbs).

Most mammals have a bone, called a baculum, in their penis. Dogs, cats, rodents, marine mammals, primates, etc. Humans do not have a baculum. This makes it necessary for the penis to become engorged with blood in order to copulate.

Polar Bears are Carnivores predators who get their food by hunting. Polar Bears are expert hunters. They usually hunt in areas that interface between ice and water. They rarely hunt in open water. They use a technique called "Still Hunting". They use their excellent sense of smell to locate a seal breathing hole and wait for the seal to appear. When the Seal comes out to breathe, the bear smells its breath, reaches into the hole with its front paws and drags it out of the water. They kill the seal by biting its head. They often raid the birth lairs of female seals and prey on the seal pups. They are extremely powerful and can even kill an adult walrus.

If a black-bear is hungry it will eat ANYTHING. So therefore a black-bear will eat a cat.

No, they do not defecate while hibernating.

Polar bears are the largest bear on earth. They can be several feet taller than a grizzly bear.

This depends. Grizzlies are a race of the brown bear, an inland race found in the US and Canada. This bear is somewhat smaller than the polar bear. But the race of brown bear found in coastal regions often grow as large as polar bears. The Kodiak bear, for example, can grow to over 1500 pounds.
Today, many refer to all brown bears as "grizzles", when in fact true grizzlies live in inland regions.

I'm not completely sure on this one, but I think they keep warm by their fur. That's the only logical answer I can think of. Hope this helps!

Not really. However a hungry grizzly may take the opportunity to take down a bison calf that strayed too far from the herd.

they dont, there is not a single of species of bear that have ever been known to hibernate. bears torper during winter, this is when they sleep, but can still wake up and walk around, hibernation is when an animal is in a deep sleep for the whole winter and cannot and will not wake up at all. torper is just like a lazy sunday morning when you wake up at 6:00, then fall asleep, then wake up and walk around again, then fall asleep. its the same concept

No more than two years, on average. Female cubs may stay a bit longer, but males are certainly gone by then.

Yes, but after the loss of land bridges to Europe, it became extinct. Due to hunting and habitat loss, it is practically extinct in Europe outside of Russia, with small populations in the Pyrenees and northern Italy.

Yes. If having your jaw permanently torn open does not kill you (which it would, your face would be completely destroyed and your neck likely broken), then you will certainly die from loss of blood.

Because the sow's reproductive tract is designed to enable her to have more than one fetus inside her, not as identical twins either. Black bear sows often don't just have twins, they can have triplets and quadruplets too!

A siberian tiger, a polar bear, a musk ox, a bison, a buffalo, wolves, and a hunter armed with a rifle.

no because all bears are almost the same except if there different color

Some can. For example, there are known cases of polar/brown bear hybrids. These two are closely related species.

If a deer (or any animal ) is running around, it is obviously living.

The grizzly is a race of the brown bear, and the brown and polar bears are very closely related. The two species diverged around 100,000 years ago.

Bears, in the taxonomic family of Ursidae, split off from other Carnivorans about 38 million years ago. Then the Ursinae subfamily originated around 4.2 million years ago. According to both fossil and DNA evidence, the polar bear split from the grouping of the brown bear, Ursus arctos, roughly 200,000 years ago. This is thought to have happened due to their isolation during a period of glaciation in the Pleistocene period.

Omni = all.

Means most bears can eat both plants AND meat.

We just found out. We encountered a huge sand mound in a forest. We put a video camera on a stick with a red light and stuck it in the hole. The huge boar black bear grogglily lifted his head, looked at the light and snapped a bit. Basically, he was more interested in sleeping and we were not going to poke the fella to find out his limits...

The blood is no more poisonous than ours--so it is not poisonous. However, if you have been bit by a bear, their saliva may cause you some misery.

There are approximately 1 million licensed deer hunters in Pennsylvania.

Actually according to the Pa. Game Commission Annual Report there are only 795,000 resident hunters and approx. 65,000 non residents sold.

This includes tens of thousands of phantom license holders; people who have licenses issued in their name but who actually never go hunting. They are bought by family and friends in order to get more deer.
