BEARS SCARCE
Big Game Guide, Alf Madsen reports that he has made an aerial survey of his hunting area and finds a scarcity of bears. His first survey just after the quake showed that the famous big Kodiak Brownies were rudely awakened by the quake and had leaped from their hibernation lairs straight down to the flats instead of meandering about as they normally do upon coming out of hibernation. He suspects the bears have perhaps returned to their dens to continue their winter slumbers. On the other hand he says it is possible also that they were so startled by the quake that they have forsaken their usual haunts and entered different areas. He also reports that he is going ahead with his hunts using a new 20-foot inboard-outboard Starcraft Cabin Cruiser in place of his big Explorer which got badly mauled in the tidal wave. He calls the new boat "Baby Explorer."
