"Clyde" the bear was the largest brown bear in captivity and weighed just shy of a ton and stood 91/2 ft. tall.  He was a resident of the Dakota Zoo, Bismarck ND.  When he died I was asked to do a life size carving of him.  For this piece I used the trunk of a California Redwood to recreate the life size version of Clyde.  This piece stands 12 1/2 ft. tall, 5ft. wide and is 7,000 lbs. of wood.  It is not for sale.  Click on photo for larger view.
