Vilas Circle Bear Effigy Mound and the Curtis Mounds are a group of Native American mounds in Madison, Wisconsin.

Now only parts of one or two linear mounds remain, on private property.

[4] Bear-shaped mounds represented earth and humanity in the Mound Builder tradition; other animal-shaped mounds, such as birds and lizards, were used to represent other elements.

[5] The mounds were added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 30, 1974.
