Endure Paddington, for example (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bear

I believe this is a double definition.

'endure' is the first definition.
(I know that endure can be written as bear)

'paddington for example' is the second definition.
(I know that Paddington bear is a fictional bear)

(Other definitions for bear that I've seen before include "Give birth to - large mammal" , "Carry - teddy" , "One's hairy" , "Abide; support" , "Shoulder - stomach" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
