“Asiatic Black Bear are known to eat 160 different tree-borne fruits in Thailand! The whitish v-shaped marking on their chest has also led to them being known as the “Moon Bear” in many regions and led to them being thought to have been most closely related to Sloth Bears and Sun Bears until very recently.
