A Bear[1] (also formatted as bear)[2] is an enemy in the Mario Zone's second stage in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. Bears resemble teddy bears and are found riding atop Beach Balls, which they can use to traverse spiky and dangerous floors. Mario can jump or throw a fireball to defeat a Bear and control its ball. Mario can use the ball to safely cross spiked floors and get to previously unreachable areas.

A Bear also appears on the "Printing" screen of the Game Boy Camera.
