TOM-91
Kermode Black / Ghost / Spirit BEAR
British Columbia Canada.
Ursus americanus kermode
Also known as Spirit or Ghost bear, the Kermode bear is a sub species of the American black bear and was named in the early 1900s after Frances Kermode. The result of a recessive gene in both parents, the bear is not an albino or polar bear. Found only in British Columbia, Canada, there are probably only 50-80 in existence, living mainly in the forests of Princess Royal Island.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, we catch a glimpse of nature's best-kept secret - the Kermode Black Bear, also known as the Ghost or Spirit Bear. With its stunning white fur contrasting against the lush greenery of British Columbia's forests, this rare and endangered mammal truly stands out from the crowd. As it gracefully navigates through its single habitat, encompassing rivers, rocks, and towering coniferous trees, our furry friend showcases both power and elegance. Its presence in North America is a testament to the beauty of our woodlands. But don't be fooled by its gentle appearance! This predator has all the skills necessary for survival in Canada's wild landscapes. Whether it's fishing in crystal-clear rivers or climbing rocky terrains with ease, this bear knows how to adapt to any challenge that comes its way.
