Old Ben is the bear around which revolve the events of William Faulkner's short story The Bear.

Old Ben has a mangled, two-fingered paw from being previously caught in a bear trap. He was shot 50+ times before finally being felled by Boon Hogganbeck and Lion, the wild dog tamed by Sam Fathers, who was Old Ben's nemesis for several years.
