The team was soliciting support for Save Winter, a climate change initiative. It was not, as I had originally thought when I first saw it, a mascot for BC's White Bear Wines.
It was quite an effective costume. It was made of mesh and was transparent if you looked closely enough. But the lightness of the costume lent a liquid quality to its movement which made it seem very bear-like. Every time I see a bear in the wild, I'm struck by the fluidity of its gait. Plus, because the people inside could see out the shoulders and sides, the head and neck could be bearishly low.
