What do you know about bears? These giant, furry land-dwelling mammals are as cute as they are intimidating.
Bears are placental mammals that belong to the family Ursidae. They are members of the Carnivora order and classified as part of the suborder caniforms. Caniforms are “dog-like” carnivores and while canines
(dogs) are part of this suborder, not all caniforms are canines. Other members of the caniform subgroup include wolves, foxes, raccoons, badgers, and mustelids. Interestingly enough, seals and sea lions are also
in this group.
