There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Asiatic Black bears or Moon bears are more carnivorous than American black bears but not as much as Brown Bears. On rare occasions they will eat dead fish during the spawning season, though this constitutes a much lesser portion of their diet than in brown bears [Heptner, V. G. & Naumov, N. P. (1998). White-chested, black bear. Pages 713–733 in: Mammals of the Soviet Union Vol. II Part 1a, Sirenia and Carnivora (Sea cows; Wolves and Bears)]. In the 1970s, black bears were reported to kill and eat Hanuman langurs in Nepal [Gursky-Doyen, S., & Nekaris, K. A. I. (2007). Primate anti-predator strategies].

These Bears kill kill ungulates with some regularity, including domestic livestock [Brown, Gary (1993). The Great Bear Almanac].


Quote:Wild ungulate prey can include muntjacs, serow, takin, wild boar and adult water buffaloes (Domestic), which they kill by "breaking" their necks.
