Dear Mister Editor:
Last year, the legislators and lawmakers were thinking about
a bill to do with the bears that some lolks pin up on the side oi
uie roads as tourist attractions.
Well, I think it is just about time somebody took a hand in
this matter and did something.
Can you think oi anything more pitiful than a bear or some
other animal use to being iree pacing back and iorth in a cage
Just to help somebody grap a lhtie more money oil the tourist? I
tee) that everyone in Cnerokee County and in Norm Carolina
snodid se. ciown and write a letter to their representative abocl
this matter.
It you hayen't notice lately, I ask you to drive to one oi these
spots and watch tne bear lor a moment. He paces buck and iorth
and you can't reip out feel sorry /or him,
1m not against hun.ing bear. That ia not nearly so cruel as
putting him in a cage with no hope of freedom. You can say that
an animal ia deferent from a human, but 1 still believe that the
love oi freedom ia there.
iA game warden mentioned tha if a bear was ever caught and
caged, he would never be any more good M freed.
1 feel that the airwer to this problem is to have a law so strict
(hat no one would cage an animal for tourist attraction.
7 Sincerely,
UlilfiWii - ? 1 D. Clare
