Is it true that bears always hide their tracks?
No, bears leave plenty of tracks and other signs such as marking on trees and scat. Bear droppings are over an inch thick, and tubular. The scat varies with diet, which can be 90% vegetable matter. They also mark trees as a tracking device for themselves to locate where they are in certain areas of the woods.
Each paw has a set of five claws used for tearing things, digging in the ground, and climbing trees.
The inner toe in a black bear track is the smallest toe. Bears walk flat-footed and can use the same trails over and over for generations. You can find these trails where each footfall is in a depression worn into the ground by the passage of so many bears over the years. The stride is about 36 to 42 in.
How many bear attacks in Alaska each year?
This is a list of known fatal bear attacks that occurred in North America by decade in reverse chronological order. In this list three species of bear are recognized: the Brown Bear (Ursus arctos), the American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) and the Polar Bear (Ursus maritimus). For purposes of this list, Brown Bear includes the Grizzly Bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), the Kodiak Bear and the Mexican Brown Bear. Between 1900 and 2003 there were about 52 recorded deaths due to black bears, 50 due to brown bears and 5 due to polar bears. The most recent data is the most reliable and complete, but does not necessarily include all fatal attacks that have occurred in North America. Prior to recent decades bear attacks were not well documented, particularly those which took place in isolated regions. As a result there were more attacks and fatalities than have been recorded as shown here, particularly in Canada and Alaska. Information provided by Wikipedia...
bears are so strong that when they hit the ground, it vibrates the ground 3 feet away.
No, they will eat elk and deer meat but not tigers. A bear will not normally attack a tiger. For one thing, tigers are not a part of any animals diet. Second, siberian tigers, the biggest cats on earth, would win against even the biggest grizzly bear! They are much more agile and powerful compared to their own bodies, then bears, so the tiger will most likely eat the bear!
Yes. Bears are carnivores and will kill tigers.

mostly herbivores like deer.
That all depends on the species of the bear. For instance, polar bears prey on seals, walruses and whales. Black and grizzly bears prey on deer, young hooved animals like elk, caribou, moose, bison and domestic bovines, and will also go after the more weaker members of the herd much like wolves will. They also prey on fish, grubs, eat eggs from birds' nests, etc.
A bear pad is a type of insulation used in outdoor gear, particularly in sleeping bags and pads, designed to provide warmth and comfort in cold environments. It typically features a thick, padded design that mimics the natural warmth of bear fur, hence the name. Bear pads are lightweight and compressible, making them ideal for camping and backpacking. They help to retain body heat while providing a comfortable sleeping surface on uneven terrain.
