The BEAR ALMANAC by Gary Brown - Polar Bear ( Ursus maritimus ) The polar bear living in an arctic ( polar ) climate is the greatest wanderer of all bears and is considered by many as the largest. It is the most carnivorous of modern bears. Yellowish white in color, with a black nose, the polar bear has an elongated body with low, well-developed shoulders; a long, relatively thin but well-developed neck; highly developed hindquarters; and a small head. It has a straight profile, a Roman nose with membranes up to half the length of the toes, and long and thick claws. Four inches of blubber cover the rump and legs ( except the inside of the back legs ).
 
Brown Bear ( Ursus arctos ) The brown bear is the most diverse bear in size. Its color is variable, though generally brown, and an individual's is relatively uniform. It has a dished face ( dished-in profile ); short, round ears that are small compared to the skull; and long claws on the front paws. With its strong build, great strength, thick head, and large hump over the shoulder, it is the largest omnivore.
The remarkable and distinguished "hump" is actually a mass of muscle that, coupled with long claws, provides the brown bear with great digging ability. Reply
