Black Bears Black bears live in North America, including northern Mexico. They live in forests and in the mountains. Black bears are good tree climbers. They sleep in trees during the summer. Black bears can be blue-grey or blue-black, brown, or even sometimes white. Black bears are good swimmers. They eat different food: berries and fish, meat and insects because they must collect as much body fat as possible before winter. They can smell food from far away. Black bears are smaller than brown bears, they are often called grizzlies. Black bears are usually afraid of people. If they lose their fear of people, they sometimes attack. That's why people should never feed a bear. In late November and early December, black bears go to their dens (hidden homes) to spend the winter sleeping. Their body temperature and heart rate are low. Their bodies use the body fat they have collected during the summer and autumn. This way, they don't have to leave their dens and hunt for food when the weather is cold. Male black bears leave their dens around mid-March, but females stay a little longer. That's because they give birth in January and want to give their babies time to grow bigger. Black bears are good mums. They feed, dry and protect their babies. Black bear babies stay with mums from one to three years while they teach their babies how to live in the wild. Then, when they're ready, they start to live in the woods alone- until they start a family of their own.
