They aren't predators. They're foraging omnivores.

These are not exclusive terms.

Predators hunt. Bears don't. If they come across something edible, they'll eat it. But they aren't going to track and kill prey, the way a cougar or wolf does.

Well...with the exception of fish. They'll scoop fish out of a river all day, if there's enough of them.

opportunistic eaters who always take the opportunity.
