The ability of bears to independently move fingers

Hello everyone !

I would like to know if bears can control their fingers to make different moves from each other.

Are bears able to pinch, like we, the humans are able to do ?

Can they move the 4 fingers (those other than the thumb) closer or further, by using lateral abduction or median abduction ? (shown below in the left)
