Yesterday was #NationalBlackBearDay! Did you know that black bears can be any shade of brown, cinnamon, or even blonde? Their tall, pointy ears, shorter claws, and lack of a shoulder hump distinguish them from grizzly bears.

The high fat diet gives this heat some shiny fur but also hard on the figure. Happy national black bear day! #nationalblackbearday

Digital sketch study of an adult and cub Florida black bear for National Black Bear Day. This ended up being more of a black fur color study and shading. Their fur reflects a great deal of light, especially when wet.

It's #NationalBlackBearDay ! 🐻🎉

Black bears depend on thousands of acres of protected land to roam freely and maintain genetic diversity, which is why protecting land is crucial to their success.

BLACK BEAR (Ursus americanus) The black bear's long fur varies in color from a shiny black to blond. A brown individual may often be mistaken for a grizzly, but is smaller in size. Adult males or boars weigh from 100 to 200 kg (220 to 440 lb), and adult females or sows weigh from 45 to 140 kg (100 to 310 Ib). In contrast with the grizzly, the facial profile is a straight line and black bears lack a pronounced shoulder hump. The claws of the feet are shorter than the grizzly's and make less of an imprint in tracks. Black bears usually reach breeding maturity by the age of 3½ years. Mating takes place in June and July. However, development of the embryo is delayed until the fall. One to 4 cubs are born in February while the sow is in the winter den. Tiny at birth (250 to 350 g, or 9 to 12 oz), cubs grow rapidly, and weigh about 2 kg (5 lb) by the time they emerge from the den in April. Boars do not share in the raising of young. Cubs remain with the sow, sharing her den during the second winter. The following spring the cubs leave to forage on their own. Except during the breeding season, and sows with cubs, black bears are basically solitary. The diet of black bears may include leaves, berries and roots, as well as fish, mice, ground squirrels, or young deer, ants, honeybee grubs and honey. They also scavenge on carrion and human refuse. From: Alberta Energy and Natural Resources Fish and Wildlife Division Published in 1984.

Black Bear at the centre of the Food Chain A food chain (or web) depicts some of the many ways in which members of a natural community depend upon one another for food. All food energy originates from the sun. Only green plants can convert sunlight into food energy. Some of this energy is passed on to plant-eating animals (herbivores). Herbivores, in turn, pass some of their energy on to carnivores that feed on them. in the decomposition of carcasses and feces left by living animals. Decomposers utilize the energy and nutrients in this food while eventually breaking it down into its components of oxygen, nitro-gen, water and minerals that were first combined by green plants to make the original food. Decomposers return these original components to the soil where they are again used by plants. From: Alberta Energy and Natural Resources Fish and Wildlife Division Published in 1984.

Today is a 'beary' good day to celebrate #NationalBlackBearDay on June 7 which has been observed each year on the first Saturday in June for the sole pur-'paws' of teaching people about black bears and dispelling the myths surrounding them. 🐻

🐻 Black Bears are intelligent - using tools, problem-solving, and remembering food sources for years. Florida's recovering bear population demonstrates successful conservation, yet trophy hunting threatens these intelligent creatures. They deserve protection, not persecution. #NationalBlackBearDay
