Bear Parks
Bear parks, though do not sound too much of problems, but the suffering of bears in those bear parks are quite noticeable.

The Black Bear
In North America, three kinds of bears are found namely The Black, Grizzly and Polar Bear. However, the American black bear, also known as the cinnamon bear, is most common among all and also is the smallest.

The Polar Bear
Polar bears or Ursus maritimus, also referred as white bear, northern bear, or sea bear, is a large bear due to its big and heavy size. It is found throughout the Arctic surrounding the North Pole.

Save the Marsican Bear
The Marsican Bear is one of the rarest bears on the planet, with estimates that there are just 40 individual bears in existence. However, while they are rare and beautiful creatures, beekeepers and farmers in Italy - where the Bear resides - are not so happy.
