Station Manager Darrell Chaffin
had a rather unpleasant experi
ence on Whale Island on the open
ing day of deer season. While mak
ing his way thru thicket of devil’s
club and salmon berry bushes he
came face to face with a large male
Kodiak bear who had just risen
from his bed under a big spruce
tree. Several shouts failed to scare
the bear away; instead he snarled,
laid his ears back, and started to
ward Mr. Chaffin who had no
choice but to kill him with a shot
between the eyes. Asked how he
could shoot so straight, Mr. Chaf
fin said it was so close he couldn’t
miss—in fact it was just four
steps. Needless to say, all deer
hunting in that area was im
mediately suspended.
