An outstanding feature of the Safari Ltd. Kermode Bear is the accurate portrayal of the bear's distinctive cream-colored fur, a result of a unique genetic trait. The figure also emphasizes the bear's robust build and gentle expression, reflecting the real animal's non-aggressive nature.
The front paw is slightly raised - giving the figure a sense of motion as if it is sneeking up on its unsuspecting prey.
The Safari Ltd. Kermode Bear figure measures Approx: 4.1" L x 1.6" W x 2.5" H.
The Kermode bear, also known as the spirit bear, is a subspecies of American black bear found exclusively in Canada. Although you might think it at a glance, they aren't albino or related to polar bears. Instead, Kermode bears have a special gene unique to the subspecies.
Approximately 10–20% of Kermode bears exhibit a white or cream-colored coat due to a recessive gene, distinguishing them from albino bears as they retain pigmented skin and eyes. This unique coloration has made the spirit bear a symbol of cultural significance among Indigenous peoples and a subject of scientific interest.
