Bear and Fish Sculpture

 Bear reaching for...

Sadly, this Bear and Fish Fountain on a busy highway outside Gravenhurst (in Muskoka) is aging...and the fountain appears to be broken.  What's a bear to do?

    Hopefully they fix it like they have with my salmon fountain from a couple of days ago. I like the bear!

    Tough to be a fish under such conditions. :-)

    That's too bad. I guess all the fountain-fixing money went to that one in Toronto that RedPat showed a few days ago!

    What a nice looking concept! Too bad it's fallen into disrepair. It looks worthy of better upkeep.

    Hopefully it will catch even one fish, that it does not die of hunger.

    It's full of character and life, it's a shame it isn't being maintained.

    Must be tough to be in that position forever without any fishing luck. "The one that got away…"
