Why Sun Bears are Cool

Sun Bears are neat. Not so neat I would have chosen them as one of four animals for a pack, but I have nothing against them being included whenever and wherever they are. Since we know they're in the files it definitely stands to reason we'll get them at some point even if it's not the next pack. I'd like to have an American Black Bear and a Spectacled (Andean) Bear as well, but after that, I think I'll have my fill of bear species for the game.
 
Yeah. I mean, if Asia is really the next pack, I'd choose Clouded Leopard, Dhole, Binturong, and some Gibbon species (maybe a Crested Gibbon or a Siaming?). But I'd also never pass up the Sun Bear
 
I can't believe I got all those (except the Gibbon)
But it looks like we are getting the proboscis monkey, which is cool too.

I'm pretty excited about the critters in this upcoming pack! Would have preferred a king cobra or python species (green tree python or reticulated python would be interesting) instead of another insect, but getting a sun bear, clouded leopard, dhole, binturong, and a new primate in one pack is really nice.

I have said this before elsewhere, but Sun bears are one of the few species proven to show selective attention (ability to remember where an object was hidden even after losing sight of it, based on memory alone. So not smell or touch, pure memory). There are some great videos on Youtube showing this in action.
