The image on this drum is from what is thought to be a Crow shield ca. 1840 (formerly in the old War Department Collectiuon) and now housed in the Smithsonian Institute
The image reflects protective bear power. The dominant red paw seems to be warding off enemy fire and protecting other bears represented by the smaller bear paws. Plains warriors recognized the strength and courage of the Grizzly and sought to acquire some of its power of the bear for themselves in dreams and in visions.
