A lot can happen in the scope of three months. Life changes. Seasons fall. Hotumns come and hotumns go. But the bears, friends, the bears never quit. We know it has been quite some time since the last issue of this most IMPORTANT BEAR NEWS wire service, and for that, as always, we apologize. Your BEAR NEWS curator has been guilty as of late of producing two separate and regular podcasts, which, as you may know, can take up a considerable amount of time. The good news is that one of those podcasts is on break until the new year (but you should listen to it anyway) and the other is nearing the end of its first season (so you should also listen to that one, too, of course). Now that all of that business is out of the way, let's get along to the BEARS!

Paddington Bear (paddington ursi), an allegedly fictional anthropomorphised spectacled bear, first appearing in the 1958 children's book, A Bear Called Paddington by Michael Bond and Peggy Fortnum. An exceedingly polite and exceedingly clumsy creature, Paddington Bear lives in London with the Brown family. 

food: Marmalade, of course, but also wide varieties of human food and drink. Mostly marmalade, though.

habitat: A native of "darkest Peru" (note: this characterization of a sovereign nation as 'darkest' is a bit much, British literary community), Paddington Bear (birth name: Pastuso) lives with the Brown family at 32 Windsor Gardens in London.
