An Unexpected Bear Hunt
One summer when I was a young teen-ager my brothers and sisters
went out for a boat ride and didn't return when expected. So my
folks, Martin and myself went out looking for them. Of course, my Dad
had his gun along.
Dad headed up the river through the slough above Marshall. Just as
we were across Wilson Slough we spotted a Black bear on the beach.
The bear became aware of the boat and headed up into the brush. Being
my folks liked bear meat, Dad went after it while the rest of us
remained in the boat. The bear climbed a huge Cottonwood tree not far
from the bank. My Dad shot at it as it was climbing the tree. The
bullet found its mark and the bear let out an almost human-like cry
and fell to the ground.
I helped my dad haul the meat back to the boat but for
a long time
after bear meat did not appeal to me because of the human-like
cry it made as it was struck.
