Eurasian Brown Bear - Ursus arctos
A European Brown Bear gives me a stare that says he’s sizing me up for lunch… Brown Bears are the largest terrestrial carnivores in Central Europe. When standing upright, they can reach a height of between 1.70 and 2.20 metres. Fortunately for me, Brown Bears derive up to three-quarters of their nutritional needs from plant matter. In summer and autumn, they feed mainly on fruit, nuts and tree fruits such as acorns, chestnuts and beechnuts.
