Scientists suggested that a careful study of sloth bear behaviour during its encounters with tigers can help people across South Asia avert deadly attacks.
About Sloth bears:
They are one of the eight bear species found across the world.
They are myrmecophagous, meaning, they find bugs and termites to be their most sought after meal.
Habitat:They live in a variety of dry and moist forests and in some tall grasslands, where boulders, scattered shrubs and trees provide shelter.
Distribution:They mainly inhabit the region of India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and presumably Bhutan.
Appearance:They have long, shaggy dark brown or black fur and curved claws, which are the longest out of any of the bear species.
These bears are mostly nocturnal, foraging for food at night and resting in secluded locations
