    Nice one, fully in the open! I understand they are somewhat rare to see? Posted 8 years ago

      Not so much in Daroji... it is a park for bears... :) Dawn/dusk is he best time, so this pick in the middle of the day is rare. Great capture. Posted 8 years ago

The Sloth bear

The sloth bear is a nocturnal insectivorous species of bears found wild within the Indian Subcontinent. The sloth bear evolved from ancestral brown bears during the Pleistocene and shares features found in insect-eating mammals through convergent evolution. The population isolated in Sri Lanka is considered as a subspecies.
