Bulgy Bears

The Three Bulgy Bears were Old Narnians who lived in hiding during the reign of Miraz.

They were brown bears, possibly family, and were very large and bulgy, hence the name, with little eyes. They were often very sleepy, always sleeping in late, but were very kind and likeable creatures.

They lived together in an old hollow oak tree, somewhere in the Shuddering Wood.

When they first met Caspian X, they accepted him as king (although they told everyone to go away at first, as it wasn't their time to get up yet), offered him some honey, and gave him some very wet and snuffly kisses.

It was tradition in Narnia that a bear was a Marshal of the Lists, and one of the Bulgy Bears served in this position for High King Peter during his duel with Miraz. A notable problem was that he kept sucking his paw, no matter how many times people reminded him that it did not look very intimidating.

Trivia

 * According to an action figure, one of the Bulgy bears had been given the name Bultitude, which is also the name of a bear featured in the third book of C.S. Lewis's Space Trilogy; That Hideous Strength.
 * One Bulgy Bear appeared in the Disney film, Prince Caspian. His only line in the film was, "For Aslan."
 * There was a deleted scene on the DVD, where the bear was asking Peter to be his Marshal of the List. Peter granted his request, but asked him to kindly stop sucking his paw...which the bear found difficult to do.
