Bob Cooper

Caveman "Bob" Cooper was one of the supporting characters in the Sly Cooper series. He was the first known Cooper in history, living in Gungathal Valley in the year 10,000 B.C. He used a large wooden stick with a bone hook on the end that has a rough similarity to Sly's modern Cooper Cane, and used his thieving abilities to provide food as the leader of his tribe.

He is voiced by Patrick Seitz.

Story
Bob Cooper is Sly's prehistoric ancestor as well as the very first Cooper. He is from the Ice Age and the very first Cooper. He has a huge bone as a weapon instead of a Cooper cane, since his was stolen by The Grizz. He can't speak English (yet the gang can still understand what he says) and can't pull of thief moves, since he has no ancestors who developed those moves. Bob was the best pterodactyl egg thief and provider for his tribe, until The Grizz showed up and stole all the eggs. Depressed, he gained a lot of weight and became terribly out of shape. He was then captured by The Grizz and had his new tool, which he made to help him steal eggs and is the very first Cooper cane, taken. But then he is rescued by Sly. He is trained by Murray and gets back into shape so he can help the gang retrieve parts of the time machine that were lost. He later appears in the present day with Bentley, Murray, and the other ancestors in order to retrieve their canes. His is retrieved by Rioichi, and he helps to retrieve Salim's cane. He is then sent back to his own time, where he regains his title as the best egg thief and pioneers the use of a cane as a tool for thieving.

Abilities
After being whipped back into shape by Murray, Bob regained his ability to climb certain walls. As a result, he became stronger and more agile.

Personality
Bob is very friendly and was very enthusiastic about meeting Sly and his friends. He took a huge liking to Bentley's gadgets, as he was amazed at what he saw through the binocucom. He has a connection with Murray, who helped him regain his strength. Similar to Murray, Bob is seen to have a ravenous appetite or in some ways, he can be seen as a glutton.
