California became an independent republic called the "Bear Flag Republic" in 1846 after a group of American settlers declared independence from Mexico. The republic was short-lived, lasting only 25 days before California was annexed by the United States.
In the early years of CA the California brown bear roamed the state. It was everywhere and there were so many that the Spanish would dig a pit and put a bear/bull in the pit to see who would win. Even as a child I remember camping where the bears roamed the camp grounds. John C. Fremont named CA the "Bear flag Republic" and in 1850 when CA became a state the bear was placed in the flag in honor of the Republic and the animal the roamed the state.
