The Teddy Bear is named after President Theodore Roosevelt, whose nickname was "Teddy." The connection to Louisiana comes from a famous hunting trip he took in 1902 near the Mississippi River in the state. During this trip, Roosevelt refused to shoot a bear that had been captured and tied up for him, which led to a political cartoon depicting this event. Following the cartoon's popularity, a toy maker created a stuffed bear and named it the "Teddy Bear," thus linking it to the Louisiana event.

The black bear was designated as Louisiana's state animal in 1992 due to its significance in the state's wildlife heritage and its role in the ecosystem. The Louisiana black bear, a subspecies of the American black bear, faced threats from habitat loss and was listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act in the 1990s.
