| + | A bear appeared at [[Evergreen Terrace]], but seemed passive. Despite this, [[Ned Flanders]] panicked, crashing his car into a tree and frantically tried to get into his home with the rest of the [[Flanders family]] struggling to unlock the door. Ned ended up jumping through the glass near the door. The bear was extensively covered on the [[Channel 6 News|news]] and the [[Simpson family]], much to an unaware Homer's joy, watched the bear destroy their mailbox.

Despite it being the only bear attack in history, the locals were tired of the "constant bear attacks" and Homer led an angry mob to City Hall to ensure it didn't happen again. To do this, [[Quimby]] started a [[Springfield Bear Patrol|Bear Patrol]], which was a costly venture, featuring expensive high-tech aircraft (carrying out a bombing campaign) and street patrols. This caused a $5 tax rise, which once again caused another angry mob. To try and please the mob's demands for a bear patrol without the extra tax, Quimby blamed high taxes on illegal immigrants.<ref>"[[Much Apu About Nothing]]"</ref> | ||

| + | [[Lenny]] was weekend watchman for [[Springfield Bear Patrol]]. One Saturday, he received a call about a bear attacking celebrities and called the rest of the team ([[Carl]], Homer, and [[Barney]]) via conch. They arrived at the scene, [[Channel 6 Television Studio]], to the set of reality show ''[[Celebrities Dancing With Bears]]''. [[Buttercup]] and [[Sideshow Mel]] were practicing the cha-cha slide when she attacked, which caused the other bears to suddenly attack their partners ([[Kent Brockman]], [[Krusty]], and [[Bumblebee Man]]) before going back to their calm selves. Before the Bear Patrol could investigate, the [[Springfield Police Department]] burst in and arrested the bears, not only taking over the case but also shutting down the Bear Patrol for good. However, [[Wiggum]] soon regretted this as bear attacks occurred throughout the city and even broke into the [[Springfield Police Station|police station]], stealing Wiggum's keys and unlocking the cell. Wiggum went back to the Bear Patrol for help, and they agreed, providing they got a triple pay increase (despite being volunteers).

The next day, Homer planted a tracking device on a bear by dressing as a girl with a basket, which the bears promptly attacked and stole. This led them to the [[Springfield Observatory|observatory]], where they found a group of angry bears and a stack of gold and other treasures. Scared, they randomly fired their tranquillizer guns and hid in the corner, prepared for death. However, the bears stopped and a tranquillized [[Arnie Pie]], wearing [[Professor Frink]]'s Ursine-O-Matic Bear Controller, stumbled out of a corner. It turned out that Arnie, jealous of not being on the TV show, decided to destroy it. With Arnie arrested, the show continued, hosted by {{ap|Bill|KBBL}} and [[Marty]], with Kent Brockman doing a tango with {{ap|Cinnamon|bear}}.

Animal Information
|
Bears are a common animal seen around Springfield. They normally live in the woods but have been known to wander into town and cause trouble.
History[edit]
Jebediah Springfield, founder of the town, was said to have killed a bear with his bare hands, and the story became a Springfield legend, which was immortalized as a statue in the center of Town Square. Upon reviewing the evidence, historians determined the bear probably killed him.[1] However, this was proved wrong by a secret will found by Lisa, which stated he died of diphtheria.[2]
Maggie was taken in by a family of bears while the rest of the family had to live on their own out in the woods. They brought her all kinds of toys and kept her warm at night, proving that they were not all mean. In the end, they were sad to see her go, but as a parting gift, she gave one of them one of her pacifiers.[3]
When Homer was late to Springfield Elementary School's talent show with Lisa's saxophone reed, Marge imagined he'd been chased up a tree by a bear, but quickly dismissed that theory.[4] A bear ate a camper's hat at Kamp Krusty.[5] The junior camper group led by Ernest Borgnine was attacked by a bear. Borgnine was going to use his knife to defend them, but Homer had stolen it.[6] Among Mr. Burns' collection of animal-based clothing was grizzly bear underwear.[7]
Gentle Ben was the host of a talk show. He wore a helmet with a microphone attached. One episode was about mothers and runaway daughters reunited by their hatred of Homer Simpson, who was accused of sexual harassment at the time. One member of the audience wanted to talk about the funding of public schools, while another tried to ask a question, only for Ben to go towards the buffet table. A man tried to stop him, to which Ben aggressively swatted him, causing the Ben Squad to tranquillize him and Ben to fall into the audience and the show to be cut.[8] Two bear-based reality shows also hit Springfield - Tied to a Bear[9] and Billionaire vs. Bear[10] One of Roofi's songs was called "Helpful Bear on the 28th Floor".[11]
Homer told Lisa one of the things he had learned with age was that when a sign said "Do not feed the bears," you did not feed the bears, revealing a baby bear biting his arm.[12] Channel 6 News reported of a stowaway bear terrorizing space shuttle astronauts.[13] Bear Baiting, a death sport, appeared to be popular in Springfield with a magazine based on the sport available in the Kwik-E-Mart.[14]
A bear appeared at Evergreen Terrace, but seemed passive. Despite this, Ned Flanders panicked, crashing his car into a tree and frantically tried to get into his home with the rest of the Flanders family struggling to unlock the door. Ned ended up jumping through the glass near the door. The bear was extensively covered on the news and the Simpson family, much to an unaware Homer's joy, watched the bear destroy their mailbox. Homer, not wanting to be captive in his own home without beer, tried to climb the power lines, but his weight caused them to dip and he ended up face-to-face with the bear. Chief Wiggum, using a blow dart, attempted to tranquillize the bear, and after hitting Barney with the first shot, hit the bear, who was taken away in a U.S. Forest Service truck. Despite it being the only bear attack in history, the locals were tired of the "constant bear attacks" and Homer led an angry mob to City Hall to ensure it didn't happen again. To do this, Quimby started a Bear Patrol, which was a costly venture, featuring expensive high-tech aircraft (carrying out a bombing campaign) and street patrols. This caused a $5 tax rise, which once again caused another angry mob. To try and please the mob's demands for a bear patrol without the extra tax, Quimby blamed high taxes on illegal immigrants.[15]
Lenny was weekend watchman for Springfield Bear Patrol. One Saturday, he received a call about a bear attacking celebrities and called the rest of the team (Carl, Homer, and Barney) via conch. They arrived at the scene, Channel 6 Television Studio, to the set of reality show Celebrities Dancing With Bears. Buttercup and Sideshow Mel were practicing the cha-cha slide when she attacked, which caused the other bears to suddenly attack their partners (Kent Brockman, Krusty, and Bumblebee Man) before going back to their calm selves. Before the Bear Patrol could investigate, the Springfield Police Department burst in and arrested the bears, not only taking over the case but also shutting down the Bear Patrol for good. However, Wiggum soon regretted this as bear attacks occurred throughout the city and even broke into the police station, stealing Wiggum's keys and unlocking the cell. Wiggum went back to the Bear Patrol for help, and they agreed, providing they got a triple pay increase (despite being volunteers). Lisa helped them by concluding that someone was using the bears for personal gain and to find them, they should locate where the bears were running off to. The next day, Homer planted a tracking device on a bear by dressing as a girl with a basket, which the bears promptly attacked and stole. This led them to the observatory, where they found a group of angry bears and a stack of gold and other treasures. Scared, they randomly fired their tranquillizer guns and hid in the corner, prepared for death. However, the bears stopped and a tranquillized Arnie Pie, wearing Professor Frink's Ursine-O-Matic Bear Controller, stumbled out of a corner. It turned out that Arnie, jealous of not being on the TV show, decided to destroy it. With Arnie arrested, the show continued, hosted by Bill and Marty, with Kent Brockman doing a tango with Cinnamon. Meanwhile, Arnie Pie was found not guilty due to the witnesses being in Moe's instead of in court.[16]
When preparing the zoo animals for Homer's next masterpiece, Bart got mauled by the grizzly bear.[17] A bear, when Mt. Springfield caught on fire, attempted to escape via the helicopter's ladder, but Homer (who was drunk) cut it down with the bear still on it. The bear then fled through the forest. It was unknown if that particular bear survived or not.[18] A bear was seen in the hospital corridors.[19]
Homer took his giant deep-fried, caramel-covered, cotton candy ball to the dump. There, he was confronted by an angry grizzly bear and cowered in fright. The bear wandered off, bored of a distraught Homer. Despite being left unscathed, Homer became a nervous wreck and hallucinated, seeing bears everywhere. Soon after, a video was released of Homer and the bear and Homer was left embarrassed. Grampa told Homer to confront the bear, and after contacting Grant Connor, a hunter, he constructed a makeshift suit of armor and went to take on the bear with Bart, Lenny, and Carl. After setting up camp, Homer took off his armor and bathed in a stream, where the bear once again attacked him, dragging Homer to its cave. There, Homer discovered that the bear was only angry due to an electrical prod attached to its ear. Homer removed the tag and he and the bear became friends, going through garbage together. Homer then took the bear to a wildlife refuge, but on the way, Grant (called by a worried Marge and Lisa) and other hunters started shooting at the bear. Homer put the bear in his armor, which successfully stopped the bullets and let him go to the refuge. However, upon arrival, he was attacked by an elephant, and the two creatures started fighting.[20]
When Bart and Gina escaped from the juvenile detention center and the police finally caught up with them, Chief Wiggum was attacked by a bear, as foreseen by Cletus.[21]
At Springfield Forest, Chalmers told The Brotherhood of the Spectacles, "There are no bad fathers in the wilderness." After this was said, a bear tried to eat its own child, only for its mother to slap him, telling him to stop.[22]
To try and teach the kids discipline and prove to Chalmers that he was a good school principal, he decided that all pupils with more than 20 detentions in the last month had to go on a back-to-basics camping trip (though the school's "state-of-the-art" computer also sent Martin the letter). Only Martin and Bart showed up, both wearing a bear costume (which Bart promptly removed once Marge was out of sight). Skinner abandoned the boys with Willie, and once they discovered he was staying in a luxury cabin, they started training to give him a "drubbing he'll not soon forget!" During the training, Willie fought a bear.[23]
A 7-foot bear wearing a fez was seen in a police lineup being looked at by Hans Moleman. Also in the lineup were Gil, Snake, Homer, and The Krusty Burglar.[24]
Fictional bears[edit]
An episode of The Happy Little Elves featured a Curious Bear Cub who joined the elves in rescuing Bubbles and getting Captain Kook's treasure.[25]
The Itchy & Scratchy Show also featured a bear, which was stolen by Roger Meyers, Sr. and was mentioned in a court case over the identity of Itchy and Scratchy's creator.[13] A bear also appeared in the short-lived Itchy & Scratchy and Friends Hour holding a club. Other characters on the show, besides the titular duo, included Disgruntled Goat, Klu Klux Clam, Uncle Ant, and an unnamed female cow.[26] Another bear also appeared in the cartoon who tore Scratchy in half to get at the rest of the honey.[27]
A fire safety mascot, Hosey the Bear, was at Springfield Elementary School's fire safety fair, where he lectured kids on the importance of fire safety. Ralph, sitting on his lap, thought he was Santa, and talked about what gifts he wanted. When on the topic of fire safety, Ralph revealed at his house they were called "Uh-Oh's".[28] There is a statue of Hosey at the Mt. Useful Visitors Center, which asks "Who can prevent forest fires?" with a button that answers "You".[29]
While in Washington, D.C., Homer had a maze where you help Yogi Bear get to the Washington Monument.[30] Homer once dreamt he was Yogi Bear, as Homie, father of Bart-Bart, and, like Yogi, smarter than the average bear. He steals a picnic basket, and when Ranger Ned asks him to give it back, Homie mauled him savagely.[31]
When Homer dreams about the Rapture occurring, Maggie is attacked by live teddy bears.[32]
