Many off-road vehicles have the words "Beware of Bears" posted on them. Who knows the meaning and origin of this sentence?

“Beware of Bears” is the logo of a foreign truck club. Members of the club are vehicles over 2 tons and less than 20 tons. “Bears” means that our trucks are very big, so we need to pay attention. We, if you don't see it, will come like bears, like mountains, and will be very dangerous. There is also a saying that Hokkaido in Japan is a tourist resort, but bears often appear. In order to warn people, benchmarks have been set up in many places with bear heads painted on them and the words "Beware of Bears" written on them. To warn people to pay attention to safety when passing here. Later it was spread as a fashion. "Bear Attention" is a warning to remind people to pay attention to bears in Hokkaido, Japan. Posting it on the car is nothing more than telling others that the car owner is more powerful, be careful and stay away from the car. But now there are too many posts and there is nothing new.

The original meaning of "Beware of Bears" is this: There are two iconic animals in Hokkaido, one is the owl, and the other is the bear. You can always see these two in shops at tourist spots and resorts. In the past, there were probably enough bears in Hokkaido that people posted warning signs saying "Beware of Bears" in places where bears frequented. Now, this warning slogan has become a trademark, with black characters on a yellow background, and is used on T-shirts, wine glasses and many other products, becoming a characteristic of Hokkaido.

In addition, "bear head" also means "very domineering, don't mess with me". When attached to the rear of the car, it can serve as a reminder to the car behind, so that it can keep a certain distance from the car in front and not hit it. superior. I also heard from a friend that if a piece of paint falls off the car body, if you don't want to spray it, you can buy a "bear head" and stick it on it. It is fashionable and unique and can cover up the paint chipping on the car. It kills two birds with one stone.
