SPECTACLED (ANDEAN) BEARS originate from the Andeas Mountains in South America. “Spectacled” was coined as a name for this group of bears, because of their ring-like facial markings and the rare similarity it shares with actual eye-wear. Specs, get it! Another bodily characteristic for Spectacled mammals are their contrasting limbs. The hind legs are shorter than the forelegs. And as a result, they’re known to be excellent tree climbers!

Being “Arboreal” mostly involve the bears to comfortably dwell in trees. Creating a nest for both eating & sleeping is performed by the Spectacled Bears, as they bend tree branches while using other natural material. Including leaves. Speaking of grub, they’re dietary consumption roughly involves a portion of 5% meat. Making them to be secondary vegetarians with Panda Bears holding the number 1 spot! Being “Omnivore” shapes their appetite to consist of: Berries, Cactus, Fish, Flowers, Grass, Leaves and Miniature Rodents. For an extra bit of protein, Wildlife Spectacled Bears ripoff tree bark to eat insects that are found within. Animal Keepers are acclaimed to make an “Ice Popsicle” filled with fish + fruit to aid a cooling sensation during the summer / hotter climate.
