Polish Museum Seeks Owner of Teddy Bear Near Shipwreck
(MENAFN) The National Maritime Museum in Gdansk, Poland, has initiated a search for the owner of a teddy bear discovered floating near a 19th-century shipwreck in the Bay of Gdansk, as reported by a news agency on Monday.
The toy was spotted by a group of Polish underwater archaeologists while they were returning from a dive in the Motlawa River.
The bear, which was soaked but still intact, had a neat bowtie and large black eyes. The team retrieved the bear and transported it back to the museum, where efforts to identify its owner began immediately.
The museum posted images of the bear on its social media platforms, with a message stating, "The rescued bear is looking for its friend," and added that the toy was "okay, though a bit cold and probably very homesick."
Lukasz Grygiel, a representative from the museum, told a public broadcaster that while some may consider the bear just a simple toy, losing it could be a significant emotional event for a child.
He explained, "Some might say it's just a small stuffed animal, but we consider that the loss of the toy could be a tragedy for a child crying for their fluffy friend."
Grygiel then made a heartfelt plea: "If you know who might have lost this fluffy friend, please contact us. May this sea story have a happy ending."
The appeal quickly gained traction, attracting numerous supportive comments from social media users. However, despite the growing public interest, the identity of the bear’s owner remains a mystery.
