bear habitat
Woodland creature's territory
Bear habitat is the natural environment where bears live and find the resources they need to survive—food, water, shelter, and space for roaming.
Different bear species occupy different habitats: grizzlies favor mountain meadows and salmon streams, polar bears depend on Arctic sea ice, black bears adapt to forests across North America.
Climate change is shrinking polar bear habitat.
Conservation efforts often focus on protecting and connecting bear habitat corridors.
