The hunting party also didn't know that a chapter of the anti-black, anti-Union KKK (Kanine Kennel Klub) had started a fire to frighten away American Black Bears. A horrible fire broke out. Franklin-Oldkirk, descendant of the American Revolutionist Benjamin Franklin who created the Union Fire Company, led a valiant fire fighting effort. But he ran out of water, and became trapped in a deadly circle of fire. He was certain he was doomed. Thus began the fame, and the secret, of Pedobear.

  • The hunting party also didn't know that a chapter of the anti-black, anti-Union KKK (Kanine Kennel Klub) had started a fire to frighten away American Black Bears. A horrible fire broke out. Franklin-Oldkirk, descendant of the American Revolutionist Benjamin Franklin who created the Union Fire Company, led a valiant fire fighting effort. But he ran out of water, and became trapped in a deadly circle of fire. He was certain he was doomed. But then he saw a small brown bear with exceptionally large, round ears. It was wearing clothing, but the bear's outfit had no sleeves, legs or back. Franklin-Oldkirk knew it was the cub he had rescued, and realized its clothing had been damaged in the fire. Then the baby bear stood on its hind legs, and start urinating. Fortunately, the fire had also burned off the crotch of the union suit. The bear pee was enough to extinguish a break in the circular wall of flame, and Franklin-Oldkirk escaped. He picked up the bear, and ran all the way back to camp. But the animal friend knew the hunting party would kill any bear they found. So he claimed "it's not a bear, just a lost young boy in a bear suit. With a burnt union suit over that. Really. He peed on the roaring flames and saved my life. You believe me, right?" Franklin-Oldkirk claimed the "orphan boy" wouldn't remove the bear suit because it was the last birthday present he received from his parents and because it covered scars caused by the fire. But the bear rescuer knew that the first time someone gave the "boy" a bath, the secret would be exposed. Knowing his wife Ingrid was as concerned about animals as he was, he told her the bear's secret. She agreed to keep the secret and the bear. The couple legally adopted the five-year-old bear in 1903, and named him Tee Pee after the president's initials. Thus began the fame, and the secret, of Pedobear.
