The cartoon character "Pedobear" is a renamed version of the 2chan ASCII art character "kuma".[citation needed] In his American incarnation, he is an anthropomorphic bear child predator that is often used within the community to mock contributors showing a sexual interest in under-age girls.[42] Pedobear is one of the most popular memes on non-English imageboards, and is gaining recognition across Europe. In February 2010, a photoshopped version of Pedobear appeared along with mascots of the 2010 Winter Olympics in an article on the games in Gazeta Olsztyńska, a Polish newspaper.[43] It has been used as a symbol of pedophilia by Maltese graffiti vandals.[44]
