Brownies
HABITAT
The Brown bear has the widest range
of all bears in the world .It ranges much of the northern
hemisphere, both east and west. Although Brown bears are found in a
variety of areas, they prefer river valleys, mountain forests, and
open meadows.
BROWN BEAR'S
BODY
The Brownie's body is rather chunky
and has a lump on its back made of fat and muscle. The brown bear has
a wide heavy head with a "dish faced" appearance. It also has very
powerful jaws, and paws with very long claws.
HIBERNATION
In all parts of the Brown bear's
range, except in Turkey and Iran, the bear is in a den during the
winter season. At the start of the denning season, they might have 6
to 10 inches of fat under their fur. The most common kind of dens are
rock caves, or a hole dug under a large tree or into a snow drift.
Depending on the weather, bears will den from the middle of September
to November.
REPRODUCTION OF
A BROWN BEAR
Some Brown bears may live as much as
thirty years old. One female was reported to have cubs when she was
twenty- five years old in a zoo. Females don't usually breed until
they are at least five years old. The breeding season is in June or
July. The cubs are born in January or February. The usual size of a
litter is two, but four is not uncommon. When cubs are born they are
less than one pound, but when nursing they gain as much as
thirty-three percent of fat. When the cubs are grown up they may
weigh a thousand times more than their weight at birth.
