Furious Campaign Launched to Hunt Massive 1-Tonne Giant Bears

""
Every year, professional hunters kill more than 30,000 giant Alaskan brown bears.
""
This is a giant bear, the largest of the bear family. Adult males can weigh up to almost 1,000 kg. The length of their body when standing is about 3 meters tall.
""
Although they have gigantic bodies, their speed of movement is remarkable. When chasing their prey, brown bears can run at speeds of almost 70 km/h.
""
This extremely ferocious bear has an omnivorous appetite and is usually active at night. The daily food of brown bears is ripe fruits, tree leaves and sometimes rodents such as wild mice, rabbits, squirrels and salmon.
""
Summer is the time when brown bears recharge their energy to create fat. The layer of fat under a brown bear’s skin can reach up to 200 kg. The thick layer of fat helps the body stay warm and is gradually consumed in winter.
""
They do not actually hibernate like many other cold-weather bears.
""
However, giant brown bears like to hide in caves, tree holes and hidden corners of the forest to avoid the winter cold.
""
This giant bear species usually operates alone, but during salmon spawning season, people see them combining into groups to hunt.
""
Brown bears’ fur can be yellow, black, brown, or a mixture of white, silver, or grayish brown. They have large humps on their shoulders and are very good at digging.
""
Female bears usually give birth to 1-5 cubs each year. Although this is a large species, the weight of the young animals is only about 500 g.
""
Being voracious eaters, brown bears grow incredibly fast. At just one month old, cubs can reach a weight of 5 to 6 kg.
""
Brown bears were once widely distributed across all continents, including Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. In some places, this giant bear has declined and become extinct.
""
Only a few regions, including Alaska, still retain a considerable amount.
""
Every year, the government here allows professional bear hunters to hunt this species of bear. They issue tags to monitor the number of brown bears killed during the year.
""
Although it is an animal with extraordinary strength and extremely ferocious, needing only a slap to kill someone, there are very few recorded cases of this giant animal attacking humans.
""
In the past 100 years, there have only been three recorded cases of brown bear attacks in Scandinavia, all because people were intentionally mocking them.
""
In the wild, brown bears are rivals for food with cunning tigers. There have been many thefts and the dead were tigers.
