Description: The sun bear (Ursus malayanus, Helarctos malayanus) is the smallest species of living bear. It is native to the forests of Southeast Asia, including China, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam. These bears are excellent climbers and spend the day sleeping and sunbathing in trees; they hunt at night.

Sun bears have black fur with a characteristic light-colored mark on the chest. The soles of their feet are free of fur to help in climbiing and they have large, curved claws for climbing, openning insect nests, and defense. These bears also use their long canine teeth to tear open trees to get at the insects hidden inside.

Sun bears eat a wide variety of foods, including insects, friut, honey, eggs, and small vertebrates.

They are solitary animals, with the only regular social group being that of mother and cubs.
