THE PROTECTION
OF BROWN BEAR
(1. ('.. Shea, game warden for
the Kenai peninsula, has wired
Ihe facts in Ihe case of the rav
ages of the brown bear, out at Ko
diak island, lo Coventor Clark,
and is asking that some method
he suggested whereby Ihe resi
dents may protect their property
without breaking Ihe law. It is
a peculiar lliing about the game
laws thai have been sent to Alas
ka from I he outside that the brown
bear is protected, Ihe same as the
moose and sheep, and as a mat
ter of lacl this species of bear is
amply able lo protect ilself and is
a menace, not only to man, but
to all forms of game life. Al Ihe
present lime if a resident of Ko_
diak kills a brown bear, in the
protection of his live stock, he is
technically guilty of a mi de
meanor and may be punished for
an infraction of the game laws.
