Gus, a polar bear who became the symbol of human interference
The bear (1985–2013) was an icon of the Central Park Zoo in New York City. His exhibit was visited by over 20 million people during his lifetime.

Reporters dubbed him “neurotic,” “depressed,” and “bipolar,” turning him into a “symbol of the stress of living in New York City.”
