Hello,
About Bearskins, I often see signifers wearing a north american Black bear skin (even in Europe). Normally, this should be Ursus arctos, the european Brown bear. Well, in France, only six remains, so that's not very easy to get, but in Russia, skins of bears from the same species are sold.
Personnally, I will never kick off a "black bear(-)ed signifer". That was just my two pences about bearskins.
Regards!
