Description
The European Brown Bear by Amy E. Fraser. This is an expressive brown bear profile portrait in shades of black, brown and gold with warm brown eyes complimented with a golden orange textural background.
The Eurasian brown bear (Ursus arctos arctos) is one of the most common subspecies of the brown bear, and is found in much of Eurasia. It is also known as the European brown bear, common brown bear, common bear, and colloquially by many other names. The Eurasian brown bear has brown fur, which ranges from yellowish-brown to dark brown, red-brown, and almost black in some cases; albinism has also been recorded. The fur is dense to varying degrees and the hair can grow up to 10 cm in length. The head normally is quite round in shape and has relatively small rounded ears, a wide skull and a mouth equipped with 42 teeth, including predatory teeth. It has a powerful bone structure and large paws equipped with claws that can grow up to 10 cm in length. The weight varies depending on habitat and the time of the year. A full-grown male weighs on average between 550 and 660 pounds and reaches a maximum weight of 1,058 pounds. They can grow over 8 feet long. Females typically range between 330 and 550 pounds. They have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years in the wild.
