The American black bear is restricted to North America and the Himalayan black bear is restricted to Asia.  There are no native black bears in Europe.

The black forest is located in the south-west of Germany, not directly near Heidelberg. The forest around Heidelberg is called "Odenwald", not quite as popular as the black forest, but still well known in Germany. However, the black forest and the "Odenwald" are completed different. The Romans referred to the black forest as "Marciana Silva", from the word "marka", which means boarder line. The official name comes from the dark firs of the forest. The name was first introduced in the year 868 as "Saltu Svarzwald" and was later used in Latin as "silva negra".\n\nPhilipp

In the Indian jungles bears can get killed by tigers. But bears sometimes have known to fatally injure tigers as well!!\n\nHowever, the Polar bear is the strongest of all land predators and it's arms (like the grizzlies) have enormous strength. Cats are born predators and killing is an instinct for them and they kill quickly and with expertise. However, bears are known for sustained fighting since that's the way they kill. \n\nHowever, I think the story could end differently if male African lions fight with bears since African lions regularly fight to keep or take over prides. \n\nSo, I'm guessing that if the Liger (or Tigon) can't kill a bear in the first few attempts, the bear is going to get the better of it.

They belong to the Family "Segellibellen", gliding dragonflies. They are American dragonflies, not European, so there is no trivial name in German, only the scientific one. \nTrivial everyday names are have been given to local animals in the local language, so there probably is an English common name, but not a German one.

If polar bears had the opportunity to eat penguins, I'm quite sure they would. The reason they don't is because polar bears and penguins live a long distance apart. Polar bears live in Arctic regions of North America, Europe and Asia, whereas penguins live in the southern hemisphere. Some books imply that all penguins live in Antarctica. This is not true - in fact, only two species (the Adelie and emperor penguins) breed on Antarctica. Several species of penguins live around South America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand and the Galapagos penguins live on the Galapgos islands (surprise!), which are on the equator. This is still a long way from the Arctic. \n\nThe problem about polar bears and penguins relates to many Christmas cards etc, which show polar animals living together, when, in fact, they don't. \n\nI hope that this answers your question. \n\nAll the best \n\nHaley

Well there is the common misconception that the amount of brown coloration on the wooly bear can be an indication about the length of winter....but that is not at all true. An all black wooly bear is most likely a different species all together. There are many caterpillars thta are similar looking and most likely belong to the same genus as the wooley bear, so I think it might be completley different.\nThis change of coloration can also be due to geographis location, it is not uncommon to see these types of color morphs in different areas of the world, maybe you just have a darker morph in your neck of the woods, than i do.\n\ndont worry it wont be too bad of a winter, hahaha

I think it was found by Günther in 1864.\n\nCheck http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_seadevil#Species

All predators are. In Europe, after they killed all the wolves, the wild live-stock degenerated.

Well, if you are looking for an adunance of them may I recommend Munich in Germany and once there consult with the federal game commission and see what they say

The Amur Tiger isn't really all that powerful in comparison to a Brown Bear:\nhttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3a/Tigerbearpred.jpg\nSpecifically note the part stating:\n"tigers can handle bears, black or brown, of almost their own weight"\n\nThey may predate on fully grown Brown Bears, but still only Brown Bears smaller then themselves (which would only include fully grown females, and subadults), and their ambushing method doens't really appear to give the Bear much of a chance, making it not look much like a fight when the events do occur.\nDue to the fact that male Manchurian Brown Bears (the Bears that live with the Siberian Tigers) average at larger sizes, they would likely be the more dominant and powerful animal, considering that the Tigers don't even really attempt ambushes on them (due to their larger size), despite the tremendous advantage that would give in attempting to kill.\nThe Tiger named Dale, that was reported to predate on "Brown Bears twice it's size", as later mentioned by the Siberian Tiger researcher, Dale Miquelle (who also happens to be the person that Tiger was named after) the mentioning of it predating on Bears twice its size was somewhat of a misquote, due to the fact that despite the fact that he did become a rather succesful predator of Brown Bears, the bears he predated on where not actually twice his size, but rather about the same size as himself, or somewhat smaller, and whoever originally heard about that incident made the assumption that size didn't matter, for some reason, and theirfore mentioned "twice his size", due to the fact that this is how large the Brown Bears can get.\n\nHowever, depending on your definition of predator, the Brown Bear may not quallify for the title, due to the fact that it isn't a strict predator, often feeding on such things as plant roots and berries in the place of killing other animals for food as the Tiger does...making it seem, to me atleast, that the Brown Bear maybe shouldn't really be considered as such.\nIf in your view the Brown Bear isn't a real predator, then it obviously shouldn't be put on the list, though otherwise, they should probably be placed over the Tiger...\nAnd for Brown Bear vs. Polar Bear:\n\n"Four big polar bears -- including three 1,000-pound males with bloody muzzles and yellow-stained fur -- were dining together on whale carcasses at a sand spit about a mile outside the northeastern Alaska village of Kaktovik.\n\nDespite the odor from rotting bowhead and the sound of chomping jaws, the midnight scene at the bone dump along the Arctic Ocean was remarkably peaceful. Recorded as part of a three-year study of polar bear feeding behavior, it showed that these predators were willing to share discarded remains with each other, said federal biologist Susi Miller.\n\nBut then the majestic rulers of Beaufort Sea ice met their match: a scrappy tundra grizzly.\n\nAs Miller and a colleague watched from the cab of a pickup, a small brown bear sow emerged from the darkness and ambled up the spit, trailed by two yearling cubs.\n\nWithout hesitation, the grizzly lunged at the first polar bear, huffing and snarling, driving it into the lagoon. Soon the second, third and fourth polar bears had joined it, leaving the food to a gnarly little bruin about one-third their size."\n\n\n"But the biggest surprise may be the growing number of brown bears crashing the party on Barter Island. And guess who is dominating?\n\n"Out of the interactions that we saw, the brown bears tended to be a lot more aggressive," Miller said. "These brown bears ruled the roost."\n\nAll from:\nhttp://www.adn.com/front/story/6415667p-6294323c.html\n\nIn these wild conflicts, the Brown Bears seem to be dominating despite their smaller size...\n\nThe Bengal Tiger probably deserves mention, and the Jaguar quite possibly does as well.\n\nEDIT: the Killer Whale, despite being i

The American Black Bear, though smaller than Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears, is responsible for more attacks on humans than any other bear. Bears generally don't attack people unless it is a sick or wounded animal, starving to death, protecting its cubs, or if it has been fed by humans or been in contact with human beings before in some way. A Black Bear can weigh several hundred pounds and be five feet tall. It is a very dangerous animal to engage in a confrontation with. Its best to keep all food sealed tight so as to not attract bears in the first place.

It depends.. iF htey live there all year round they have layers fo fat called blubber\nthey also have fur... polar bears have clear fur to collect heat and light and warm the bears. \n\nif they are travelling inbetween cold and warm( like humans d0)\nthey do things like shiverring and teeth chattering, also the blood rusehs to the skin to warm and away from the ears adn the feet to keep the inner organs warm
