A momma bear and her rambunctious cubs tussle over trout in this playful scene in front of town hall. Black bears are an iconic symbol of the Smokies and are occasionally spotted right in town. A wayward cub was captured by town police officers a few years ago on the playground of First Baptist just a block up Main Street from this sculpture.
