==Bears==

Bears are large omniverous creatures (with the exception of the polar bear) that can be found in many mountainous forested areas. (Again, with the obvious exception of the polar bear.) The can be aggressive when supprised or hungry, or (in the case of females) when protecting their young. At other times they are quite placid, and as likely to simply move out of the way of people as to attack them.
