	Behavior:	This massive creature is the forest's glutton. He can consume entire berry patches. They hibernate in winter, and are generally only seen during fall when the preparation for hibernation overrides the need for privacy and the Humans' homes and dump become appealing food gathering places.
	Social Organization:	Solitary & Non-territorial; While bears might come together they prefer to live alone. The only time groups are seen is when mothers are with their cubs, or the bears are gathered at salmon spawning grounds.
	Danger Level:	High (Deadly to all cats); Running is the only option, a bear is well and truly able to slay any cat it wishes to see dead.
	Approval Level*:	Administrator; Because of the highly dangerous and destructive nature of bears, an Administrator must approve their RP appearances beforehand.
*Some creatures require approval to appear in RP. This is to make sure the Admins and Mods who need to know are fully aware of a beast currently active in their area. These ratings are mainly for those creatures that cats cannot simply drive off.
