    And why was a big bear constellation associated with regions known for bear presence? :thinking-about-it:

        Yes, that's also where the bears are generally in greater concentration.

        The Antarctic, by contrast, has no bears.

            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.
