Bear on a lead

Had an early morning start for a photo-call promoting a show called Wojtek: The Happy Warrior which tells the story of a 500lb bear that was recruited into the Polish Army to carry munitions as well as drinking beer! Eventually the bear found its way to Edinburgh Zoo where it became a heroic figure for the many Poles that have made Edinburgh their home. 

In November there is going to be a permanent statue commemorating the life of the bear in the exact spot where we were taking the photos.

This could also be an entry for this weeks challenge theme of LEAD.
