The Bear’s paws combine delicacy and strength, and he uses them to gather food and fight his enemies. When angered, he is bold and thunderous, smashing with his great weight, ripping and tearing with his terrible claws. When left alone, he fattens himself on nature’s bounty, then dreams the winter away.

The Bear is a loafer, berry picker, and comic lover of sweets. Secure and confident, he asks only to be left alone but he yields to none. When provoked, his rages are channelled into a fearless charge, and then his deceptive speed rapidly brings him close enough to crush his opponent into oblivion.
