Winnie the Pooh was first conceived when a soldier, Harry Colebourn, adopted and brought a black bear cub to England from Winnipeg, Canada, after its mother had been killed by hunters He bought the bear from the hunter which killed its mother, and took it to London Zoo for a long loan. Christopher Robin favoured this bear and spent many an hour in the cage, playing with it. The bear was named Winnie, as a shortened version of the place whence he came. So, the bear became Christopher Robin's inspiration for calling his own teddy bear Winnie.

A Map of Pooh Country
A. A. Milne, who wrote Winnie the Pooh, set his stories in and around a village, named Hartfield, which is in East Sussex, southern England.

Today is Winnie the Pooh Day so the lovable animated bear
While Pooh Bear hasn't aged a bit since we met him, he is officially 82-years-old having first been sketched in A. A. Milne's book in 1926. Maybe that's why he has always seemed so wise.
Friends constantly look to him for help and Pooh's always willing to lend a hand asking only for a good dose of honey in return. Honey happens to be his food of choice.
his favorite phrase is "Do you have any honey?" Pooh's best friends are Christopher Robin, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore, Roo, Rabbit, Kanga, and more recently Lumpy.
