They seem to enjoy meat, vegetables, fruit, milk and rice.Bears are not quite dangerous as people imagine(想像) them to be. Like most animals, they will try to stay away from human beings. However, bears are not weak animals. Sometimes they kill hunters, for they can be very dangerous. Bears have a good sense of smell but they have poor eyesight. They are also hard of hearing but they are very clever. They feed mainly on roots(根), frogs, fish and also small insects. They will sometimes kill deer(鹿)and other large animals, but they seem to like small animals better.In the cold area, bears hibernate(冬眠), or go to sleep from October to April. Before they start to hibernate, they eat a lot and store(存储) fat. The mother bear has its babies, usually two, towards the end of hibernation. A large bear is much cleverer than a cat and most other animals. You may notice at the zoo how cleverly they ask for food. They sit up and hold out their paws(爪).
