Make wording changes so that "these bears" is not used so repetitively. Thanks! DrBuchholz (talk) 16:08, 7 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Great job. I particularly liked the addition of the seed dispersal section. Very interesting. I made some small grammatical corrections but other than that I think you did well in expanding the page content.

Population growing or declining?

Latest comment: 7 months ago2 comments1 person in discussion

The second paragraph from the top says the population of these bears is burgeoning, and the second paragraph from the bottom says they are declining into extinction. Both statements are properly sourced. Is there any way to resolve this discrepancy? J S Ayer (talk) 23:41, 29 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Much improved; thank you! J S Ayer (talk) 02:24, 31 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
