The video above shows some historical examples of how Smokey Bear has appeared in public service announcements.

Below is a new version of a Smokey Bear song.

The original Smokey Bear song was the genesis of a misunderstanding of Smokey’s middle name: “The”. A songwriter added it because he thought it was needed in the phraseology of the music. But Smokey does not have a middle name. He is SMOKEY BEAR.
