Cette sculpture de l'ours est l'oeuvre de l'artiste sculpteur Philippe Charbonneau de la Fonderie Laperle. Cette sculpture a été donné à la ville de Saint-Ours dans le cadre des festivités du 150ième anniversaire de sa fondation. Cet ours se veut un clin d'oeil à l'ancienne fontaine des trois ours en bois et c'est aussi la reproduction de l'ours présent sur les armoiries de la ville.
