THE FLORIDA BLACK BEAR

THE FLORIDA BLACK BEAR (URSUS AMERICANUS FLORIDANUS) IS THE ONLY BEAR SPECIES IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA AND IS CONSIDERED A “RECOVERING SPECIES” THEY ARE NO LONGER CONSIDERED A CONSERVATION CONCERN.

HOWEVER, BOTH THE POPULATION OF FLORIDIANS AND BLACK BEARS ARE GROWING AT A PRETTY FAST RATE. LIKE FLORIDIANS, THEY USE ALMOST EVERY TYPE OF HABITAT FOUND IN FLORIDA TO CALL HOME. MEANING WE SEEMS TO RUN INTO EACHOTHER ALOT .

AS FLORIDA GROWS AND HOMES AND SPACE WE ARE CONSTANTLY DESTROYING HABITATS FOR OUR LOCAL WILD LIFE, THATS WHY, AT BLACK BEAR PAVING CO. WE WANT TO GIVE YOU SOME RESOURCES TO HELP YOU, BE AWARE, EDUCATE, AND SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. SO WE CAN PROTECT OURSELVES AS WELL AS OUR BEAUTIFUL WILDLIFE ( NOT LIMITED TO BLACK BEARS) IN OUR BEAUTIFUL STATE!
