The Zuni bear is a vital symbol for the Native American Zuni people. It represents strength, healing, introspection, and protection. In Zuni culture, bears are seen as a guardian and a source of protection. They are also believed to possess wisdom and a deep connection to the spiritual realm. Zuni fetish bears, such as this one, are small carvings made of different materials that are believed to embody the spirit and qualities of the bear.
