Kermode Bear Kids Toy Figure

Introducing the Safari Ltd. Kermode Bear, an intricately hand-painted figurine that brings Canada's unique wildlife straight into your hands. Also known as the Spirit Bear, this subspecies of the American black bear is found only in Canada and is revered in the folklore and cultural traditions of British Columbia, where it's recognized as the official provincial mammal. Contrary to appearances, Kermode bears are not albino or related to polar bears. They owe their unique white fur to a special gene exclusive to this subspecies. Researchers suggest that this distinctive coloration aids them in daytime hunting of fish, as their light fur, combined with sunlight, makes them less noticeable to marine life. Our Kermode Bear model is beautifully crafted and painted by professionals, highlighting the bear's timid gait and characteristic appearance. Measuring 4.5 inches long and 2.5 inches tall, this figurine is great for educational purposes, creative play, or as a unique addition to a wildlife collection. This Kermode Bear figurine is part of the Wild Safari® North American Wildlife collection, a range that celebrates the diversity of North American animals. Made from durable, non-toxic, BPA-free PVC, our products offer safe and educational play for children aged 3 and up. Safari Ltd. is dedicated to creating toys that foster learning and creativity while providing endless fun.
