Snippet from the Brackett News Weekly. Thursday, June 23, 2011. By Ms. Leigh Jenkins, Contributing Writer.

"State Game Warden Dayton Isaacs was called to investigate a possible black bear sighting on June 15.

"The Kinney County Sheriff's Department received a call last Thursday at 7:36 p.m. of a black bear crossing Highway 90, five miles east of Brackettville.

"Isaacs drove out past Fritter Park, but did not find a black bear; however, he did find a loose black calf wandering along the highway.

"Isaacs reported he was able to rustle the baby cow back onto the property without further incident ..."

Way to go! :)
