“Another beast appeared,
A second one.
It looked
Like a bear.
It was raised up
On one side.
It had three tusks
In its mouth,
Among its teeth.
It was told.
‘Arise!
Devour many bodies!’”
The second beast to come up out of the water was a bear looking creature. It raised up on one side with 3 tusks among the teeth in its mouth. Someone told it to arise and demolish many bodies. This may have been a reference to Medes.
