A bear from a Winnipeg Zoo inspired the creation of Winnie the Pooh. A bear cub was purchased by a Canadian Army vet, who named her "Winnie" after his hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba. He brought the cub on his way to serve in World War I. The cub became the unofficial mascot for his regiment. When he had to leave for the front lines, he left the bear at the London Zoo, where she became a popular attraction. It was at the Zoo that A.A. Milne's son, Christopher Robin, met the bear. He was so fond of her that he named his teddy bear Winnie. Milne later wrote stories based on Christopher Robin and his stuffed bear, Winnie.
