American black bears are called “black bears”,

but they do appear in different colours. In the eastern part, most of these bears have shiny black fur, but in the west they grow brown, red, or even yellow coats. To the north, the black bear is usually gray or white in colour.

Black bears are the smallest of all American bears. They are from five to six feet long, weighing from three hundred to five hundred pounds. Their eyes and ears are small and their eyesight and hearing are not as good as their sense of smell. Like all bears, the black bear is kind and seldom dangerous, but if they sense danger, most can climb trees or run very fast. When angry or afraid, they are very dangerous.

Black bears feed on leaves, roots, fruit, insects, fish, and even larger animals. One of the most interesting qualities of bears, including the black bear, is their winter sleep. Bears do not really sleep through the winter months. It does not eat during the winter months. And it stays inactive on cold days, sustaining (维持) itself from body fat.

Most black bears live by themselves, except during the mating (交配) season. They like to live in caves (洞穴). Black bears can live as long as thirty years in the wild, and even longer in some nature reserves.
