Panserbjørne

Panserbjørne, or "Armored Bears," originate from Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" series. They are intelligent, powerful polar bears with natural armor-like hides, giving them a formidable appearance and protection. These bears possess their own culture, societal hierarchy, and are skilled warriors and strategists. Despite their imposing presence, they have complex emotions and moral codes. In the series, they symbolize strength, independence, and the importance of respecting nature and tradition, playing significant roles in the story’s exploration of freedom and authority.
