Sažetak
Why not to re-introduce "rehabilitated" brown bears to the wild? Biological background Brown bears are very unique animals: as the largest terrestrial carnivores they feed predominantly on vegetation. They are very demanding towards the habitat they live in and they need complex inherited and acquired skills. Bears need large unfragmented areas with good vegetation cover, enough diversity and low disturbance (Huber and Roth 1993). Depending on geographical latitude and general habitat quality an individual bear may roam over some 100 km2 up to 100.000 km2.
