Forrest,
Great little carving. As always brought a smile to my face. Glad you are doing somewhat better. Thanks for sharing this little guy with us. I always wondered what bears did in the woods and now I know. Where else but on WCI can you get such a multi-education such as wood carving and nature all rolled into one.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark

That age old question is answered for sure now - there is the proof.
Love it-has character and humor great piece.
So you take it easy and do not try going to the holler and check that still!
