I believe Louis Naranjo was the first to make bear storytellers. He once explained why he began making them. He was hunting one day and came across a female bear with two cubs. He watched the cubs playing and their antics inspired him to create the bear storyteller figurines.
In this Cochiti Pueblo Black Bear Storyteller with Five Cubs, Louis has placed the bear cubs on the mother bear. They appear to be well-behaved cubs.
Condition: very good condition
