Dad was born in 1918 in Montana. Family notes he was born in a log cabin. Internet ancestry research indicates it was in Bruce, Mt. based on two actual documents dated either side of Dad's birthday. Here is another bear pix  I'd like to post a few seconds long .MOV video. Any one know how? SIGnature NRA Benefactor CMP Pistol Distinguished | |||

Couple of thoughts for your movie… You need a site that will host it, link from here (and it this forum has to approve that format). Alternatively you could create an animated GIF, perhaps through a third-party website free service and then post that here.

Where is Bruce, MT? I'm pretty familiar with most places here but I've never heard of Bruce, and Google ain't helpin'. Cool bear, though. ________________________________________________________ It is long past time for a Convention of States.

That is a great bear and and a great story about your dad. Imagine being born in a log cabin in a place that doesn't even exist anymore. Just think of the stories he could tell. .....never marry a woman who is mean to your waitress. | |||

That’s cool, what’s the covering on the bear? Leather? “You may beat me, but you will never win.” sigmonkey-2020 “ in my opinion, anything that we can do to trigger a potential aneurysm in a leftist is a good thing and worth doing” nhtagmember 2025 | |||

Bruce, MT on a 1920s map.  Bear fur looks like a fabric. Very realistic where it still is in good shape. SIGnature NRA Benefactor CMP Pistol Distinguished | |||
