Bear tattoos are traditionally chosen by men. The image of this mighty predator speaks of enormous strength, energy and ferocity of nature.

The meaning of the bear tattoo

First of all, the image of a forest predator symbolizes power and aggression. However, a tattoo with a bear suggests that a kind and vulnerable nature is often hidden behind a fierce mask.

The image of a “bear footprint” can serve as a male amulet, which gives strength and endurance, and also protects in dangerous moments.

Since such a tattoo is in great demand among men, the bear is represented on it as menacing, baring its teeth and preparing to attack. The image is designed in monochrome with a predominance of dark tones. The most popular styles in which tattoos are performed are black&gray, vipshading, and realism.

The clubfoot predator is often depicted against the backdrop of a gloomy coniferous forest, which is made using the black work technique.

What areas of the body are bear tattoos placed on?

The image of a mighty beast is made on a large scale, so it is more often found on the shoulders, chest or back. Bear tattoos are often done using the sleeve technique, and in a smaller format they are tattooed on the forearms or ankles.
