The American black bear is found throughout much of North America ranging from the West Coast to the East Coast and from Alaska down to northern Mexico. It can be found in alpine areas, conifer and deciduous forests, and swamps of the Deep South. They eat almost anything including kills they make such as bison calves, ground squirrels, fish, meat they scavenge, grass, roots, and other vegetation, and garbage and other human foods they find including at campgrounds. Although called the black bear there are brown and blond color phases as well as a white phase known as ghost bears.
