Bear poop keychain creators urge public to buy through official channels
2026-05-25
A keychain coin purse that looks like realistic black bear scat has become a viral sensation, especially in South Korea. Unfortunately, their massive popularity has given rise to a market for scalpers. The creators asked the public to only buy through official channels, as part of the proceeds go toward black bear conservation. The husband-and-wife duo also made their first public appearance to explain the concept behind their design.
This is the viral keychain coin purse that looks exactly like black bear scat.
Unzipping it reveals colorful seeds inside, faithfully representing the diet of the Formosan black bear.
Voice of creator
Explaining details
The most noteworthy item is the oak tree acorn. It’s the black bear’s favorite food. The biggest one here.
They’re made entirely by hand, shown for the first time here. South Korean fans have gone wild trying to get their hands on one to hang from their luxury handbags. The massive buzz it’s created is hard to believe, considering the simple way it came about from a brainstorming session between a husband-and-wife creative duo and the Taiwan Black Bear Education Center.
Huang Yao-hui
Keychain creator
We were brainstorming how to deconstruct the droppings and analyze exactly what foods are inside. Then we got the idea to make a plush toy that you can unzip.
Different colored beads represent different foods to help people better understand the food chain and ecosystem. As they weren’t making regular orders, the item’s sudden popularity has resulted in serious backorders, and the creators are concerned about the resale market that’s popped up around it.
Hsiao Min-yuan
Keychain creator
We’ve noticed some suspicious reselling and scalping with our latest sales. We hope everyone will stick with our original philosophy of “buying their poop to save the bears” and only purchase directly from the Taiwan Black Bear Education Center. Some of the proceeds actually go back to the center to support black bear conservation.
The creators fondly recall taking a family black bear ecology tour, where they got to examine bear droppings together. The invaluable lessons they learned from a renowned black bear conservationist, Hwang Mei-hsiu, inspired them to take on the project. They hope that amid the buying frenzy, people won’t lose sight of the challenges facing Taiwan’s bears.

爆紅! "黑熊便便"鑰匙圈遭轉賣牟利作者:盼循正規管道
2026-05-25
擬真的黑熊便便鑰匙圈，近期爆紅，韓國民眾都搶買，不過也傳出黃牛轉賣炒作，創作團隊呼籲，部分收益將回饋黑熊保育，請大家循正規管道購買。而創作者夫妻檔也首次現身，提到他們的創作理念。
這是近來超夯的台灣黑熊便便鑰匙圈。
打開一看，五顏六色種子映入眼簾，忠實呈現台灣黑熊吃的食物。

“最具代表性的，就是青剛櫟，是黑熊最喜歡的食物，就最大顆這個”
純手工製作過程，首度曝光，超夯文創小物，韓國民眾都瘋搶，買回來掛在自己的PRADA包，話題十足，難以想像當初只是黑熊館與藝術家夫妻的小小發想。

“想說怎麼樣把這個有趣的便便拆解，然後去分析便便裡面到底吃了哪些東西，我們就想說或許我們可以用布偶的概念，然後拉鍊打開”
不同顏色珠子，代表不同食物，進而了解食物鏈生態圈，一開始只有零星發售，意外爆紅後經常供不應求，還出現加價轉賣的亂象，讓創作者十分擔憂。
[["黑熊便便鑰匙圈"創作者 蕭民遠]]
“這陣子的販售上面，已經看到有一點點，疑似轉賣或是有黃牛，所以我們還是希望，大家可以秉持著這個，”買便便救黑熊"這樣的理念，走這個正規的管道，進入到黑熊教育館去購買，部份的金額其實是會回饋到教育館那邊，去做一個黑熊的保育”
當初帶著孩子參加黑熊生態親子團，一起聞便便，由台灣黑熊保育人士黃美秀上了寶貴的環境教育課，創作者至今都難忘，也提醒民眾瘋搶黑熊便便之餘，別忘了關心黑熊處境。
