Challenge of the Yukon: The Black Bear

What challenge of the Yukon? Unking! Unyohuski! The Wonder Dog King, swift, distant, strong, Mr. Eskimo lead dogs, blaces the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the challenge of the Yukon!

Sergeant Preston was typical of a small band of Northwest mounted police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country, with a greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed but in spite of the odds against them Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog King met that challenge and justice ruled triumphant Sergeant Preston

was on his way to headquarters in Dawson City when he was hailed by a young boy about 12. Sergeant Preston, wait a minute. Well hello there Bob. Hello Sergeant Gee I'm glad to see you. I wanted to talk to you but you haven't been in Dawson for a long time.

Hello King. I've been a long arctic patrol Bob. How are you? I'm all right, but the black has been stolen. Your pet bear? No wonder this happened. Pretty near a month ago. That's what I wanted to talk to you about.

We found his chain file. Someone took him one night. Oh, that's a mean thing to do. Why would anyone steal a pet bear? He's just about full of size by now, isn't he? Mm-hmm, he's awful big, but he was tamer.

Gosh, I miss him. He was very friendly. Remember how he and King used to play together when they were both little? Yes, Bob. That was a strange friendship. They always liked each other. Blackie never liked dogs. King was the only one.

Well Bob, I'll keep my eyes open for him. Maybe I can pick up some information about him somewhere. Gee, Sergeant, I knew you'd help me. He's so much bigger than when you saw him last, you might not recognize him.
