'''Bear''' is the lone [[Brothers Bear]] representative of ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. He strongly resembles [[Bazaar]], and is the only Brothers Bear absent from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. However, the game's instruction booklet and [[Nintendo Power]] coverage refer to Bear as "the Brothers Bear"<ref>''Donkey Kong Land III'' instruction booklet, pages 7 and 16.</ref><ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 102, pages 64 and 89.</ref><ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 103, pages 84 and 85.</ref>. This implies that Bear is not a separate character, but a generic stand-in for the Brothers Bear. | |||

[[File:Sheepy Shop DKL3.png|thumb|left|Dixie meets Bear in his Sheepy Shop.]] | |||
Bear operates his own cabin, the [[Sheepy Shop]], in every world, including the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Land III)|Lost World]]. When [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] enter his location, he provides them with a few options: the first one is to play the card game [[Memory]], the second is a level hint, and lastly to teleport the Kongs to the main world map. He substitutes the typical role of [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] and [[Funky Kong]] for the second and third options respectively. | |||
If the Kongs win at Memory, Bear gives them various items, such as [[Banana Bunch]]es, [[Red Balloon|Extra Life Balloon]]s, [[DK Coin]]s, and [[bear coin]]s. If they first win, the Kongs will receive a [[Stop Watch|Watch]]. | |||
Bear is fully animated in the original Game Boy version, but was reduced to a single frame in the Japanese [[Game Boy Color]] port. | |||
