Those extra stars don't really make it more bear looking.

Looks more like a drunk person drawing a stick horse to me

Where the fuck were you 2500 years ago? We could of had some kick-ass names and backstories for our night sky.

How many long tailed bears were around in Ancient Greece? I saw a backwards interpretation that made more sense where the tail becomes the eye of the head.

Here's an actual photo of the night sky with all the minor stars. There's nothing there that even squinting gives the appearance of a bear.

What's funny is it very clearly see a bear there.

Not sure if I'd be able to make it out in person, but the image makes it so very clear to me.
