The new Owlbear is a good late-game threat that draws you a card.

Hi here I am again. I see that you already have found many from the new set :) Here are a few that have been left out or that I have found since the last time:

Adventures in the Forgotten Realms

• Circle of the Moon Druid

Additionally there is an alternative art version of Owlbear .

Modern Horizons 2

• Sylvan Anthem

This one took me a little time to spot (on the right side, easier to see if you turn the art around), but boyo what a great addition! For this one, there also is an alternative art sketched version where the upside-down head of the bear might be easier to spot aswell.

Now lets get to the real juice.

Eldritch Moon

• Emrakul's Influence

If you look closely (https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/023/629/751/large/ryan-alexander-lee-ryan-alexander-lee-gatewatch-is-overrun.jpg?1579818634), the creature that Gideon is slashing, from the shape of its teeth and snout, could very much be a bear. It could however also just be some corrupted, mangled, fleshy monstrosity. So, in the quest for the eternal truth on the matter, I messaged the artist and got the confirmation (-> https://imgur.com/a/6cRPAQs) that, indeed, it is a bear we are talking about here. The applicability of the card in any bear-centered deck may be non-existent (although, if I may be allowed to dream, an Eldrazibear would be killer), but seeing as this is a purely archival enterprise, that doesn't really matter I reckon.

On the matter of Menagerie Liberator , I definitively think that that on the right side is a bear (as can be seen with a higher resolution -> https://cdna.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/003/258/818/large/michael-bierek-mike-bierek-menagerie-liberator.jpg?1471757804).

Though I don't think that absolutely all bear related cards in Magic have already been found, I think that we are starting to get pretty close. At least WotC seem to have taken note, so I guess we will keep getting new bear cards in the future. Also, why isn't there a subreddit for this yet?

Keeping up this time!

Added: Owlbear and Instrument of the Bards

I ended up picking up these for my collection: Menagerie Liberator and Lead the Stampede

I actually commend you on Lead the Stampede because I stared at it forever and couldnt find it until I went to the link you sent with the better image. Never thought that I would see a bear turtle but alas there it be. This being said we totally did just get an owl bear. I am actually not convinced with Menagerie Liberator though. I am feeling different vibes from it but totally see what you mean. Maybe I will message the artist or something. I did that for a few cards now to rule them in/out.
