No. I'm suggesting that the constellation being seen as and named for a bear likely was because of already-existing bear populations in the north. It was more playful at first but if you're going to be totally :reddit-logo: about it, I'm not interested in going further.
it was named for ursa major
And why was a big bear constellation associated with regions known for bear presence? :thinking-about-it:
it's in the north part of the sky
Yes, that's also where the bears are generally in greater concentration.
The Antarctic, by contrast, has no bears.
are you suggesting that the bears saw the constellation and headed north
