What is the main predator of bears?

Regardless of what type of bear it is, as an apex predator and carnivore, bears, have almost no natural predators. These are mostly just limited to other bears, humans, scavengers, and the occasional tiger.

What mammals eat black bears?

Fish, small mammals, and birds are sometimes on the black bear’s menu. In the spring some bears may prey upon newborn moose calves, deer fawns, caribou calves, or elk calves. Bears are also attracted by carrion, or deceased animal flesh.
