Description

When: May 26, 2019

Where: Dierenpark Zie-ZOO Volkel, The Netherlands

It feels like it was the year of triplets - a lot of baby births happened in threes.

Of course, we weren't instantly lucky all times. In fact, it was in most cases quite the opposite! Which makes a return visit that much more special when you take time, and so do the baby animals, and they give you a whole playful show

Species: American Black Bear (Amerikaanse zwarte beer)

Latin name: Ursus Americanus

Originates from North America.

Curent status: Least Concern.

Did you know:

…Female American Black Bears tend to have more slender and pointed faces than males.

…They are highly dexterous, being capable op opening screw-top jars and manipulating door latches.

…Their fur is less shaggy or coarse as that of brown bears.

…American Black Bear skins can be distinguished from those of Asiatic Black Bears, by the lack of a white mark on the chin, and hairier footpads.

…Despite what their name suggests, they’re known or theor color variation, ranging from white, blond, cinnamon, light brown to dark chocolate brown and jet black. It is not unusual for the cinnamon, blond or light brown individuals to be mistaken for a Grizzly.

…American Black Bears typically avoid confronting humans when possible, and wil most likely limit themselves to making mock charges, emitting blowing noises and swatting the ground with their forepaws.
