Ed Cushing recalls a brutal bear encounter in Medicine Lodge last week. A French sheepherder with Schuler fought a large black bear and its cub in a raspberry patch, using a six shooter to kill the mature animal and then the cub. The family head joined, received a minor wound, and withdrew. The mature bear weighed about 400 pounds and the cub was nearly as large as a steer.
