1. Very cool and so much more humane than the real thing!

I was able to grab some pics from the "Gallery."


The wild boar is surprisingly adorable.


And I can only imagine how long it takes to crochet a full-size bear!

2. and it looks like it was felted after crocheting it

i never thought about felting crochet, only knitting, but i'm sure that's how she got them to mold so well, make it more 3-D.

thanks for posting the pic - the lion is awesome too. she lives in the uk and will have 3 lions for the olympics.

3. Imagine how big that bear was BEFORE felting!

Thanks for the link. I'll keep an eye out for her lions in the Olympic coverage. :
