Now you may of course answer however you see fit, as always. More so as this is a pretty open forum as far as bears are concerned. Let me explain, your favourite bear could include a real life bear, grizzly, kodiak etc. Or maybe a cartoon bear, Winnie, Baloo & so forth. A bear from a movie tv show or a book. Hell, perhaps even a favourite cuddly cute little teddy bear that you own. So you see, any bear will do. You may begin…. the bear necessity being, have fun with it =)

Fozzie the bear, hands down! With Yogi second.
As for reality, Polar bears are so cute… I want to hug them and squeeze them and call them my best friend.

Grolar bears. You know, the grizzly/polar mix. I think they’re supposed to be super dangerous, but I like saying “grolar”. Although I’ve heard people call them “pizzly” bears before too, and I think that just sounds gross.
As for fictional bears, I used to like watching the Bear in the Big Blue House with my little brother. It was cute…

My teddy bear is named “Edward ther Bear” after an exchange of dialogue from Milne’s Winnie-The-Pooh (“Don’t you know what a ther is?”). Fozzie the Bear, Paddington, and Rupert Bear aren’t too far behind.

@crisw
Wikipedia classifies panda’s as bears: source”:Classification
For many decades the precise taxonomic classification of the Giant Panda was under debate because it shares characteristics of both bears and raccoons.[36] However, molecular studies suggest that the Giant Panda is a true bear and part of the Ursidae family,[37][38] though it differentiated early in history from the main ursine stock. The Giant Panda’s closest ursine relative is the Spectacled Bear of South America.[39] The Giant Panda has been referred to as a living fossil.[40]

All the polar bear comments made me think of this clip from the quiz show QI. I love the vocal reaction to the comment made about polar bears.

I think Polar Bears are very majestic and awe inspiring because of their enormous size and rugged handsomeness.

Paddington or Yogi, but don’t like bear skin rugs.

Smokey Bear. When I see him I know I’m near a state forest. State forests are my favorite spots to visit here in the states.

Also, Little Bear. He reminds me of cuddle time with my children.
