Hi Everyone! :hug:

I'm so excited to introduce Chinook.  He's a sweet recycled mink black bear cub who is named after his favorite salmon...  it's also called King salmon and Spring salmon, depending on where you live.  This little one took a lot of work, but to me he was worth it - I'm so in love with him!   

I hope you can visit his web page at www.melisas-bears.com/Chinook.html ~ lots more pics there & all his details! 

Thanks for taking a peek at him!  :rose:
