BIG BEAR TAKEN
UP THE WINCHUCK
Cy Meadors, Harbor, came
up with a really big bearSun-
day night about two miles up the
Winchuck.
The bear was trapped, and
measured 7 feet, 2 inches long
and was probably about f iv e
years old.
Meadors, a m asters mech
anic at Oregon - Ufe shington,
has been trapping bears in this
area for about four years, but
this is the biggest one he has
run onto.
He got off work Sunday night
at about 9-7)0, and decided to
check his trap, located on the
Roy Lyle ranch.
It was dark when he arrived,
and he was startled to see this
giant of a bear on all fours try
ing to pull the staples out of the
trap. He had pulled one staple
off, and was working on th e
second when Meador* arrived
on the scene.
The bear stood on its hind
feet, roared like a bull, and
made a lunge for Meadors, who
was armed only with a . 22 rifle.
Meadors shot him three times
to finish the bear off.
He and Wayne Barton, Roy
Lyles, and Dave We b e r a n
managed to drag the big bruin
up to the road.
