Once a brown bear was common throughout Europe, including England and Ireland (Atlas Bear), and in the east through Siberia and China reached Japan. It probably came to North America about 40,000 years ago from Asia, through the Bering Isthmus and settled widely in the western part of the continent from Alaska to northern Mexico.

Now the brown bear has disappeared over most of its range; in other areas is small. In Western Europe, its fragmented populations survived in the Pyrenees, Cantabrian Mountains, Alps and Apennines. It is quite common in Scandinavia and Finland, found in the forests of Central Europe and the Carpathians. In Finland, declared a national animal.
