National Park Foundation Series
Established to conserve America's natural beauty and wildlife, the National Park Service and Foundation cares for over 83 million acres of our nations's most diverse territory. The national parks are host to a variety of wildlife, and Breyer celebrates these regal animals with this special collection. A portion of the proceeds from this series benefits and supports our nation's protected parks.

The American Black Bear ranges across the Northern United States and Canada. Most Black Bears are black, but colors range from Black to gray, beige or brown. In the Pacific Northwest there are bears that have white coats but are not albinos.
In size the Black Bear stands between 24-36 inches at the shoulder.
The Breyer Bear Model is between 1/6 scale and 1/9th depending on what kind of bear it is thought to be. At 1/6th scale it is at home with GI Joe, and any other Fashion Dolls, and at 1/9th scale it is the same scale as the Breyer Traditional Model Horses.Traditonal The largest of the Breyer scales horses, these are approximately 12 inches long, and 9 inches tall. They are between 1/10 and 1/9 scale. Once a set number of models have been produced, the model is retired. Other models may be produced from the same mold, but will have a different color and markings. Current models are still in production. Retired models are new in their boxes, but are no longer being produced. Used models are out of the box, and range from good condition to battered, and are priced accordingly.
