It really seems to be surprising for many, that when tigers are usually said to be able to run approximately 65 km/h, a brown bear can run up to 60 km/h, major difference is, that a bear can run that speed surprisingly long distances when needed. While a big cat is faster in very short distance, it changes quickly and even in short distances bear is only slightly slower. There are cases where riders with horses have had to flee full gallop in order to be able to make escape.

Watch this video in which a bear chases adult moose and look how it runs in that rough terrain, that moose has no chance to outrun the bear. This is one thing what many have trouble to believe, moose is actually slower than a bear in his/hers prime. These inland brown bears or grizzlies are no jokes, when they need to hunt.
