The Asian black bear (Ursus thibetanus), also known as the Indian black bear, Asiatic black bear, moon bear and white-chested bear, is a medium-sized bear  species native to Asia.

The Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus) is omnivorous, eating insects, fruit, nuts, honey, small mammals, and birds as well as carrion.

Asiatic black bears live in moist forests, on steep mountains, and in areas where the vegetation is thick.

Asiatic black bears are the prey of Siberian Tigers. Asiatic black bears feed upon the carrion that the tigers kill, and if the bears are caught while feeding, they are killed and eaten by the tigers.
