Bears have powers that we do not and are revered by the A:Shiwi (Zuni). They can walk short distances on hind legs so an upright bear is showing strength. Bears will keep fighting even if wounded teaching us to stand up and fight for what is right. Bears are the most prevalent subject of Zuni animal carvings. Andrew Quam's standing
