Look at the picture. You can see a brown bear. In North America it is known as (1) grizzly. Its fur is thick (2) and brown colored that’s why it is called brown bear. There are other breeds of bears, one of the most famous ones is called Polar Bear.
This bear is big and strong. Its ears are pricked (3) and round. It has small black eyes and an elongated (4) muzzle with a black nose. Its mouth is half open and you can see a pinkish tongue (5) in it.
It looks quite friendly and cute but that doesn’t mean that one should mess (6) with it. Bears are very dangerous creatures (7). They can develop a speed up to 60 km per hour, whereas the world human record is 44 km per hour. Their weight (8) is around 400 kgs but some bears can weigh (9) between 500 – 700 kilograms. If it stands on its rear legs it can reach a height of 2.8-3 meters. Its tail is short, from 65-210mm, hardly visible from its fur. Its paws are strong with powerful non-retracting (10) claws about 8-10cm long.
Brown bears live in forests. They are omnivorous (11). Their diet is made up of 3/4 fruits and vegetables: berries, acorns (12), nuts, roots, tubers (13) and grass stalks. The other 1/4 of a bear's diet is worms, lizards, frogs, rodents (14) (mice, marmots (15), ground squirrels (16), chipmunks (17)) and fish. Far East brown bears are known to hunt Himalayan bears and even tigers
