Grizzly "Grizz" Bear is the main protagonist of the series. He is the oldest of the three bear brothers and is their leader.
Shonen Hero Traits[]
- Heroic/Honorable: Grizz has done many rather admirable deeds over the course of the series. Some heroic acts include saving his brothers from being run over by a train when they were cubs, returning the evil Jean Jacket to the dumpster, saving his brothers from the wolves, and saving all of Agent Trout's captured bears from the wildfire. Out of the three bears, he stands out the most and sets good examples for his brothers.

- Energetic: He is shown to be outgoing, boisterous, energetic and outdoorsy, displaying this attitude a lot.
- Stubborn: In "Viral Video" he insists that becoming internet famous is their best chance in a long time to make more friends even with Panda's objections, and he goes to speak with Nom Nom in his limo. In "Primal", he tried to make himself and his brothers live in the wild to try something new, but this resulted in Panda and Ice Bear going insane without any food to eat.
- Pursues a Big-End Goal: In "Viral Video", he wants to become internet famous by making a video. In "Food Truck" he seeks to make a food truck after the food they tasted at a food truck was terrible.

- Unintelligent: While he is usually intelligent, he sometimes makes foolish choices that can land him and his brothers in troublesome situations.

In We Bare Bears: The Movie, he refuses to give up after escaping confinement at the animal reserve center and confronts Agent Trout, telling him that nature adapts and he should adapt too. Later, he and his brothers work together to make a giant bear stack consisting of them three and all the other captured bears in order to escape the wildfire via reaching Officer Murphy's helicopter.
- Confident/Cocky: He is occasionally arrogant, and thinks that he, and his brothers are typically the coolest, and the ones who are better than other people, but mostly himself.
