Ursus americanus cinnamomum

Also known as Cinnamon Black Bear

Cinnamon bears are a distinct reddish-brown color morph and subspecies of the American black bear, found primarily across the Rocky Mountain region and western North America. Despite their striking chestnut coats, they share identical habits with dark-furred black bears, foraging extensively on berries, nuts, insects, and vegetation throughout the warmer months. Solitary by nature, they spend autumn building thick fat reserves before entering winter dens inside hollow logs, rock crevices, or dug-out burrows.
