sun bear
Fact FileSun bears grow to 4.5 feet long and weigh up to 100 lbs and they have huge tongue which can grow to 25 cm long. Sun bears also have huge claws and very sharp teeth and they are also incredibly strong and fast and they have a great sense of small. They are also the smallest type of bear. Unlike most bears they don't have that thick fur and this is so they don't over heat in the warm climate. They are also nocturnal and mostly eat fruit at night and the reason for them having a long tongue is so they can eat honey from bee nests. But when they are threatened they stand on hind legs and charge at whatever they think is threatening them and they have the power to bring down an adult human and they could probably shake a human around like a rag doll and could even rip off limbs and tear off skin.
