Understanding Bear Ages
Bears are long-lived mammals with lifespans ranging from 20-30 years in the wild. They reach maturity between 3-4 years of age and go through several distinct life stages. Environmental factors, food availability, and human interaction can impact their life expectancy.
Bear Life Stages
- Cub (0-3 years): Dependent on mother, learning survival skills
- Young Adult (3-8 years): Establishing territory
- Adult (8-15 years): Prime breeding years
- Senior (15-20 years): Experienced but slowing
- Elderly (20+ years): Advanced age, reduced activity
Note: This calculator provides estimates based on average lifespans for each species. Wild bears may have shorter lifespans due to environmental factors, competition, and human interaction. These estimates are based on optimal conditions.
