Bart the Bear

Bart the Bear (1977-2000) was a male Alaskan Kodiak Bear who appeared in several Hollywood films.

In 1988, he appeared in L'Ours, for which the Jim Henson Creature Shop provided animatronics. His other film credits include Legends of the Fall, White Fang, The Edge (with Alec Baldwin), The Great Outdoors (with John Candy), The Clan of the Cave Bear (with Daryl Hannah), and Walking Thunder (with John Denver).

Bart should not be confused with a younger bear of the same name, who has appeared in Dr. Dolittle 2. He was named after the elder bear.
