Brown bears, among the largest carnivores in the northern hemisphere, can weigh over 750 kg and have a diet that is primarily omnivorous. As their populations have rebounded due to protection efforts in the contiguous US, human-bear conflicts have escalated, particularly as bears expand their range into areas dominated by agriculture and human habitation. This resurgence highlights the balance between conservation success and the challenges posed by overlapping ecosystems, as both bears and humans seek similar food sources.
Brown bears, weighing up to 751 kg, are formidable omnivores whose growing populations lead to increased human-bear conflicts, especially as they reclaim traditional habitats.
The range of brown bears is expanding as their populations rebound, causing them to overlap more with human settlements, resulting in conflicts over food sources.
