Pete Madsen, fox farmer of the
Kuslof district, is reported to have
had a very narrow escape from
death recently while hunting bears
with Ed Lovdahl in the vicinity of
Policy Creek, reports the Anchorage
Times. Madsen and Lovdahl had
shot at what they thought was a
black bear, partially concealed in
a thicket of alders, and they were
taken considerably by surprise
when a big brownie, angered by a
bullet wound, emerged from the
thicket and charged them. Both
men took to their heels but Madsen
tripped and fell directly in the path
of the infuriated bear. The brownie
attacked Madsen without ceremony
and undoubtedly would have killed
him had not Lovdahl gone to the
rescue, at no small risk to himself.
From a position not more than
seven feet distant, he sent a bullet
into the head of the bear, drop
ped him before he could do any
more damage.
Madsen was taken to Snug Har
bor for treatment and returned to
his Kusilof home in the M. S. Dis
coverer. He escaped serious injury
but he will carry the marks of the
encounter for a long time.
