Marianne Loyd is a woman on a mission to raise ‘teddy bear awareness’ around the world.

With her growing collection of sequined stuffed teddy bears, Loyd wants to call attention to bear issues like fighting-bears in Pakistan, torture in Japanese bear parks, bear hunting, bears in the circus, bear farming, bile extraction, use of body parts and dancing bears.

The Norwegian author and teddy bear artist has been making stuffed bears for over ten years.
