  • The Bear Symbol in Indigenous Art

    Characterized by its strength, the Bear is one of the most prevalent figures in crest and stories. The creatures are universally respected for their intelligence and intuition. The bear represents a link between the human and non-human animal realms, as well as between the secular natural realm and the divine or supernatural.
