Adult black bears typically weigh between 200 and 600 pounds, though their size can vary greatly depending on their geographic location and food availability. They have a diverse diet that includes fruit, nuts, and small vertebrates. Mother bears, such as the one depicted in this photograph, are known for their strong maternal instincts, closely guarding and nurturing their cubs for about two years. Despite their name, black bears' coats can vary from black to chocolate brown or even cinnamon, adding a beautiful variety to their appearances. Their capability of adapting to various environments has allowed them to thrive in forested areas, wetlands, and occasionally, suburban regions where their paths cross with humans.
