If you're somewhat new to tying I want to point out this book.  You should
consider putting it on your holiday list of things to get yourself!  It's a
great reference for all kinds of techniques.

Dave,
Depending on the fur (or hair) used, you can divide it up into sections
based on length and texture:

Long guard hairs
Short intermediate hairs
Underbody hair
And what I call underbody fuzz.

Not all fur-bearing creatures have all of these, and all of them vary in:

What lengths and textures they do have naturally,
Where on the animal you harvest it (forehead vs butt, etc.),
If it was an aquatic mammal (waterproofing oils/dense underfur and fuzz),
and What climate it was harvested in.

Dubbings can be:

Clipped then separated into lengths
Blended with all lengths used
Blended with just one or more lengths used
Blended with other dubbings,
Dyed, one color or blended colors, or with flash materials, Waterproofed.

And my favorite- dubbings can be:

Rope-dubbed, tapered and segmented,
Rope-dubbed, fuzzy or clean,
Rope-dubbed with hackles,
Rope-dubbed on wire thread.

Your bear fur/hair can give you lots of looks, depending on you you clip,
prepare, and spin-out the dubbing.

Notice I didn't mention dubbing tools, loops, wax, etc., because I don't use
them.

DonO
