Where Do Black Bears Live?
Typically, these bears thrive in heavily forested areas. They often venture out of the woods, however, in search of nourishment. Human communities consequently attract them due to the easy availability of food scraps and trash. Residents in these areas should practice “bear-aware” habits to stay safe.
A Thriving Population
The American black bear is a true conservation success story. Its population is currently twice that of all other bear species combined. Along with the brown bear, it is one of only two modern bear species not threatened with extinction. Their high numbers and widespread distribution ultimately prove just how resilient these animals are.
