Bears have been popular subjects in art, literature, folklore and mythology. The image of the mother bear was prevalent throughout societies in North America and Eurasia, based on the female's devotion and protection of her cubs. [135] In many Native American cultures, the bear is a symbol of rebirth because of its hibernation and re-emergence. [136] A widespread belief among cultures of North America and northern Asia associated bears with shaman; this may be based on the solitary nature of both. Bears have thus been thought to predict the future and shaman were believed to have been capable of transforming into bears. [137] Postma, Laura. "The word for "bear" ".
