Conservation

I would still like to keep a conservation section talking about the success this bear has been, while still mentioning the need for continued action. I do not have time right now to update, if anyone wants to take a crack at it I would be grateful. If not I will try to update in the upcoming weeks.

Habitat

"Black Bears in Southern Florida are the only subspecies to live in a Sub-Tropical region." While this statement is properly sourced, it doesn't make much sense. Much of the southern half of the United States and also parts of Mexico are subtropical; not just Southern Florida. Other subspecies, such as the Louisiana black bear and the Mexican black bear, inhabit subtropical regions as well. 71.203.144.172 (talk) 17:43, 3 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Diet
