No such thing as brown bear, they are just brown colored black bears.

And now you know.

Wikipedia disagrees with you:

That's the grizzly.

4/18/14 12:17pm

Nope. The grizzly is actually a type of brown bear; they're not synonyms.

I'm pretty sure you're completely wrong on that.

Guys, the tour guide at Yellowstone told me so. So it must be right!

What about kodiak and polar?

4/18/14 12:16pm

Or the grolar?

4/18/14 12:16pm

I think a Kodiak is just a subspecies of brown bear and a polar bear is it's own

...but black bears are commonly brown?!?

4/18/14 12:18pm

You are wrong. Brown bears are black bears with different coloring.

Is Alaska still part of the US? Kodiaks and polar bears live in Alaska.

Uh...Ursus Arctos vs. Ursus Americanus. These two species of bears are commonly

Byron McNertney

4/18/14 12:45pm

Nope. They are a subspecies unique from brown bears

4/18/14 12:42pm

First paragraph of your link: "It is the largest subspecies of brown bear"

fredgarvin

4/18/14 12:45pm

D'oh! I should have left it to just the US not North America.
