The bear’s mouth is slightly open as it clambers over a log atop a rocky outcropping. Its pointed snout gives way to a massive head bearing distinctive small eyes and ears. The bear’s large neck is lowered as it scans the ground. The outer frame of the image also features a miniature stylized grizzly head in profile.
