To construct a heraldic title, you need to demonstrate that it follows a 
period form of construction. I don't see any way in which Spirit Bear 
could be constructed following period practices (nor is it actually a 
local creature - more like a minor deity of a sort, which also would 
place it out of reach). Silver Bear would be a possible construction you 
could justify.
