The bear is a mammal of the family Ursidae. Their closest relatives are Pinnipeds (seals, walruses and the like). They inhabit a wide variety of habitats throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. Despite their heavy build and awkward gait, they are quite adept runners. Most bear species are listed as vulnerable due to encroachment on their habitat or due to illegal trade of bears or bear parts. Poaching and international trade is prohibited but still ongoing. Despite being quadrupeds (walks on all fours), bears can stand on two legs and sit similarly to humans. This particular one was listed as a grizzly. It could be a brown bear though. I’m not sure.
