Teddy looked down at his rifle and then... laid it on the ground. He shouted out to his men, “Stop badgering that bear! It is helpless. Let it go!” Following the president’s orders the men cut the rope and let the bear go free.

A few days later a newspaper cartoonist named Clifford Berryman heard about the president’s meeting with the bear. He drew a cartoon illustrating President Roosevelt and a wild bear. The cartoon first appeared in a newspaper called The Washington Post. People everywhere were talking about how the president had ordered his men to let a wild bear go free. Soon, the cartoon appeared in newspapers all over the country. People from New York to Michigan to California saw the cartoon and read about Teddy’s kindness toward the defenseless bear. The nation’s love for their president grew even stronger.
