Kodiak Diary
(continued from page 3)
bar and the paper says:
“The Kodiak bear bent the
iron bars between his cage and
tha' of the Polar bears, and roar
ing a challenge, lumbered
through the opening
‘The Polar bear reared on bis
hind legs to meet the charge, and
the 2 bears fought with tooth
and claw, but mostly by biting.
(Note: this would be a good
place to say something about
Molars in the Polars, if we could
only think of It.)
“Zoo workers rusbed to the
scene and poured water from a
fire hose on the battling monst
ers Long, spiked poles were
thrust at the furry hides. The
bears ignored them throughout
the 20-miDute battle
“The Kodiak’s weight and
speed began to tell. The bloody,
battered hulk of the Polar sank
to the floor of the pit He twitch
ed and lay still, dead
The viet >r turned and wad- j
died back to his quarters, pay
ing no attention to the lady Po-'
lar who lay licking her wounds
She had tried to help her mate—1
and the Kodiak bear had pushed j
her aside with a sweep of his
huge claws
“The Kodiak bear wasn’t even
ruffled by the battle.
“That’s the law of the wild ”
said Zoo Superintendent L.. J.
House, “—tooth and claw ”
The Kodiak bear was one of
those furnished by Cha'les Mad
sen, Ioeal guide, and the latter
was quite happy to dear of the
success of his protege
The article said the death of
the Polar climaxed a feud of
years’ standing and that the Po
lar was “victim of an ancient
grudge.’’
We don’t know about that, as
it wasn't so long ago we record
ed the meeting of a Kooiak bear
and a Polar bear and the only
result was another tear, that,
someone whimsically called a
Kolaror Podiak, or something
similar
But maybe tha>’s ihe law of
the wild, too,—on y a diffeient
