Still tracking, but I would like to think it was a horse , a possibility suggested by this article. http://www.lonesentry.com/articles/ttt07/russian-and-japanese-transport.html Jan 13 10, 1:20 PM

He was Syrian for one thing, was unusually hirsute and couldn't bear being alone. A link with several nice kodiak moments: http://dameyo.com/2009/04/20/polish-secret-weapon-wojtek-the-soldier-bear-who-went-to-war/ Unafraid of the grizzly aspects of war, Wojtek (his friends didn't call him Teddy) was the first in line to enlist when he heard that war was bruin, and he proceeded to cause pandamonium wherever he want. My sincere apology to those whose humor is the polar opposite of mine. Jan 13 10, 6:10 PM
