Meet the Bears
How bears across the world have overcome the challenges of life - from finding food and raising cubs to confronting rivals and habitat loss - all thanks to brains, brawn and amazing adaptability.
From the mighty grizzly bear to the endearing real life Paddington, the spectacled bear, and Rudyard Kipling鈥檚 Jungle Book's Baloo, the sloth bear, this remarkable animal family has long captured our imagination.
As some of the largest animals on earth, they need more than just the 'bare necessities' to survive - especially in today鈥檚 ever-changing world. This film explores how bears across the world have overcome the challenges of life - from finding food and raising the cubs to confronting rivals and habitat loss - all thanks to brains, brawn and a remarkable ability to adapt.
