Solid and imposing, the Pyrenean bear is one of the symbols of our mountain wildlife. A subspecies of the brown bear, it is recognizable by its massive silhouette, thick fur, and elongated snout. Long threatened with extinction, it is now the subject of reintroduction and protection programs.
An opportunistic omnivore, it feeds on berries, roots, honey, but also fish and small animals. Surprisingly, before entering hibernation, the bear accumulates significant fat reserves, which can double its weight to survive the winter in its den. Its exceptional sense of smell allows it to detect a food source several kilometers away.
This Papo figurine realistically reproduces the Pyrenean bear: thick fur, powerful paws, and robust posture. An ideal model to enrich a collection of wild animals, invent mountain stories, or educate children about the preservation of local species.

Once Upon a Time There was Papo
For almost 25 years now, Papo has been helping children to grow and to discover the world around them. Childhood is a time of dreams and adventures, and this was what we had in mind when we decided to create our first princesses, princes, dragons and knights. Thanks to the originality of its products and the extreme care taken with product quality and safety, Papo has won children and parents over the years. Papo is now a reference in the world of model figures and continues to develop new ranges to inspire the imaginations of children all around the world. In an age of mass consumption and throwaway goods, Papo continues to produce fine quality toys that last over time and can be passed on from generation to generation.
