Hercules (bear)
Hercules (1975 – 4 February 2000) 〔(Hercules the Bear website. )〕 was a trained grizzly bear from Scotland who appeared in a number of cameo roles for various television productions, reaching the height of his popularity in the 1980s.
==Origins==
He was owned by wrestler Andy Robin and his wife, Maggie, who originally bought him from The Highland Wildlife Park in Kingussie, south of Aviemore, as a cub in 1976. Andy, having wrestled a bear (Terrible Ted) in Maple Leaf Gardens in 1968, hit upon the idea of adopting his own bear to create a star. The wildlife park was unable to rehouse newly-born cubs, with their only option being to put them down, and sold one to Andy for £50, allowing him to take the cub home that September once he was old enough to leave his mother.〔Stevens, Christopher. ("Hercules was the 50st grizzly, brought up like a human, who conquered Hollywood - and liked a tipple or two. Now a new documentary featuring home movies shot by the British couple who raised him tells his story." ) ''Daily Mail'', Mar. 21, 2014. Retrieved May 15, 2015.〕
Hercules grew quickly and in one year grew to a weight of 30 stone.
They trained in a remote area in Sheriffmuir near Dunblane, where the couple lived. .
