Sun bear

Environmental Engineering 2/7/24 Sun bears live in tropical forests of Southeast Asia.Forests with plenty of trees are home to sun bears. They need lots of space to roam. Sun bears have sleek black fur with distinct golden or white chest patch. They are omnivores, eating both plants and animals, and are known for their long tongues, which help them get honey from beehives. Deforestation, illegal hunting, and the expansion of human settlements threaten the sun bear's habitat. In the future, sun bears might adapt by becoming more nocturnal to avoid human contact and finding new sources of food in altered landscapes. The changes in the sun bear, like becoming more active at night, are a response to the changes in their environment caused by human activities, like deforestation and habitat loss. This adaptation helps them survive in a world where their natural homes are disappearing.
