Bear Climbing Tree Statue

1. Introduction of Bear Climbing Tree Statue

David Turner is a famous wildlife sculptor, known for his ability to depict the natural forms and lifelike details of North American wildlife. Most of his works are made of bronze, with a realistic style, and precise carving techniques to show the behavior and posture of animals in their natural environment. Turner’s sculptures are found in major zoos, parks and museums in the United States, and are highly praised by audiences and collectors. The Bear Climbing Tree Statue in the picture, called “Black Bear Family”, is one of Turner’s masterpieces. It was created in 1991 and is located in the Philadelphia Zoo.

This bear family statue shows an adult American black bear and several playful cubs interacting by a tree stump. In the Bear Climbing Tree Statue, the mother bear stands by the stump with a majestic posture, as if guarding her cubs, while several cubs play around the stump in different postures, full of vitality. The sculpture delicately depicts the texture of the bear’s fur and muscle lines, especially the thick body of the mother bear and the flexible movements of the cubs, making the whole work look lifelike.
