*** About Florida Black Bear: The Florida black bear is a subspecies of the American black bear found primarily in the forests and swamps of Florida. This species is the largest land mammal in the state, with adults typically weighing between 250 and 450 pounds, although some males can reach up to 600 pounds. Adapted to a life in both upland hardwood forests and wetlands, Florida black bears have a varied diet that includes fruits, nuts, insects, and small vertebrates. Conservation efforts have been crucial in managing and maintaining bear populations, especially as development encroaches on their natural habitats.
