Although many people think that bears are part of the cat family, bears are in the canine family. They are caniforms, or doglike carnivorans, with the pinnipeds being their closest living relatives.

The bear family is called Ursidae. There are only eight species. These are the polar bear, brown bear (which includes grizzly and Kodiac bears), American black bear, panda bear, sun bear, spectacled bear, sloth bear, and Asiatic black bear.

The bear seems to be loosely related to the dog, as they have a very similar skeletal structure.
