Except there isn’t. Bears and weasels are both carnivores, just like monkeys and apes are both primates. They’re both caniforms, like how apes and monkeys are both Siimiformes. The caniforms are then split into parvorders, such as Ursida. In the case of the Siinifomres, you then get Old World and New World Primates. The Ursida is then split into various superfamilies, including those of Bears and weasels. With Old World primates, you get monkeys and apes.

There’s more to biology then just the appearance of animals. When you look at genetics and biological classifications, bears and weasels are related to one another in the same apes and monkeys are.
