Not all black bears are black – their fur can range in color from a cinnamon color to very dark brown or black… and very rarely, white.

Black bears are excellent tree climbers, swimmers and can run as fast as 30 mph.

American black bears often mark trees using their teeth and claws as a form of communication with other bears.
