Why is the warden bear pet bright orange?

Anyone else find the warden bear pet to look really stupid? I'm extremely disappointed in ZOS's false advertising.

We were sold, based on the trailers, on having a warden bear pet that looked like:
9453939339f18ae6bef132542d531814.jpg

But instead of getting a pet with a majestic brown pelt (which would match the bear mount, noncombat pet and bear outfits in the game) we got a neon orange monstrosity.

Is this is ZOS's way to show their tacit support for Trump? Because I have no other explanation for why the warden bear is the color of cheeto dust.

    It's funny that it's also the size of a very large dog, or an adolescent bear, not a full grown one.

    I see what you mean even though I would not call it orange - maybe the trailer is more portraying the collectors edition grey one?

    Looks like a brown bear to me, a red-ish brown bear. But defiantly Not a "neon orange"

    It's a cinnamon bear. They exist in real life, and their fur is really that reddish color.
    (Cinnamon is the name of the color, not the name of the species of bear.)

    Is this a bad time to say I think the Warden bears are cute?

    ... It is, isn't it.

    I won't, then.

    Yeah, I expect "bright orange" to be this color.

    This one is even more orange than the one in the game.

    I'm guessing OP hadn't seen a whole lot of bears.

    Some can look pretty orange, especially Alaskan brown bears.

    Just an aside, but white mane horses exist in real life, too. It's a pretty rare color combo, though.

    Maybe you need to calibrate the colors on your monitor? It looks like a reddish brown bear to me. Plus that looks like the standard skin and not the collectors edition grayish/brown bear skin which was the one featured in the videos. If you ordered the collectors edition, you will need to activate that skin through the collections menu.

    There are probably going to be other bear skins eventually anyway. So just bear with them for a few months...

    Possibly they made it a different color to distinguish it more from the existing bear mounts, pets, etc.

    It's a trailer, mate... It's supposed to look badass and does not promise we will get exactly what we see, except maybe if it's a gameplay trailer. We weren't promised next gen graphics or dunmer that look just like humans just with pale skin and red eyes either. In the trailer they looked more like human vampires, actually.

    Oh, right. And the bear looks brown to me.
