My new Grizzly bear cub ~ "Wayra"

Wayra is my newest Grizzly bear - a special bear as I rarely work with recycled raccoon fur due to how difficult it is to work with.  But the vintage coat I used needed a new life, and I knew it would work well for a large bear cub, so Wayra was born.  While I was working on him I likened his "birth" to labor pains - I got quite a few blisters and needle pokes because of the thickness of the hide.  But I hope you think he was worth all the effort!
