Bear Size ~

[Pckts]

Captive bears live in a man made habitat. Their diet, activity and general lifestyle is dictated by humans and thus they serve no purpose in comparison to a wild bear. Brown or white, the comparisons need to be done in an optimal setting for the bear and must be equally comparible. Far too many factors come into play in captivity from zoo to zoo.

I would also wager to guess that just like big cats, captive bears show specific signs that can separate them from their wild counterparts. So comparing them to each other would not be apples to apples. Reply
