The Moon Bear is diurnal, meaning that they are active during the day as well as the night. Living half of their life in trees, Black Bears will eat, sleep, and elude predators using their strong climbing skills. Â Asiatic Black Bears can sometimes live in families of four with two parents and two smaller cubs for protection against predators. Most bears do not hibernate but some will in the colder regions of Asia. The black bears that do hibernate will sleep from November until March.
