Museum Provenance

Black bears are among some 274 mammals whose diversity is explored by The Kenneth E. Behring Family Hall of Mammals at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History. You will find a black bear in the temperate forest habitat in the North America Gallery. Black bears eat lots of food in summer to store fat for winter when food is scarce.

Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
