Sloth Bear

1. Luscious Lips - Sloth bears have lips and so do humans.

2. Pilates With Your Palate - Sloth bears have a palate and so do humans.

3. Shave So I Can Hear - Hair can grow in the ears of sloth bears and this can be the same for humans.

4. Wibbly Wobbly Knees - Sloth bears back legs are knee-jointed and so are humans.

5. Sounds Of The Wild - Sloth bears can bark, grunt, snarl, woof, yelp, shriek, whimper, huff, gurgle, hum and croon. Humans can make all of these noises.

6. Baby In A Cradle - One sloth bear, that was domesticated, could cradle a woodblock like a baby.

7. Animal Cruelty - Sloth bears can be trained to dance, which is a disgusting form of entertainment. Humans can also be trained to dance, but in much nicer circumstances.

8. Movie Stars - Baloo, in The Jungle Book, is thought to be described as a sloth bear. So we could say that sloth bears have appeared in TV and film, which is the same for some humans.

Spectacled Bear

9. How Much Do You Weigh? - The average human females body weight is said to be 45kg and the average female body weight for a spectacled bear is 35 to 82kg.

10. Snack Time - Spectacled bears can eat horse, deer and corn and so can humans.

11. Let’s Get It On - Mating for spectacled bears can occur at any time of the year, which is the same for humans.

12. Proper Telly - Spectacled bears have been in documentaries and so have humans.

Sun Bear

13. Jungle Kind - Sun bears live in tropical forest habitats and so do some humans.

14. Give A Kiss, Like A ‘Dis - The skin on a sun bear’s upper lip is naked, which is the same for humans.

15. Non-Flappy Ears - Sun bear ears are capable of very little movement, much like human ears are.

16. Walk On The Wild Side - The soles of sun bear paws are naked much like the soles of human feet are.

17. Body Clock - Male sun bears are mainly “diurnal” which means that they sleep at night and are awake during the day. They have been known to stay awake for short periods of time at night though. Human behaviour at these times of day are very similar.

18. Figgy-licious - Sun bears eat figs and so do humans.

19. Let’s Rumble - Sun bears can “mock fight” each other and hug their mates, or other half, much like some humans do.
