The story was first published in the September 1930 issue of ''Cosmopolitan'' magazine, with illustrations by José Segrelles.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Contents list )〕 ==Synopsis== The story following a circus bear who wishes to live free in the wild. Bongo is raised in captivity and greatly praised for his performances, but poorly treated off stage. As such, while travelling by train his natural instincts urge him to break free. Once he does and enters a forest, it takes about a day before his idealistic assessment of his new living situation is shattered and he is faced with some hard conditions. The next morning however he meets a female bear, Lulubelle. The two of them fall in love, but he is immediately faced with a romantic rival in the brutish, enormously-shaped Lumpjaw. Bongo fails to interpret Lulubelle slapping him as a sign of affection and when she accidentally slaps Lumpjaw, he claims her for himself, forcing all other bears into a celebration for the "happy" new couple. Bongo comes to understand the meaning of slapping one another among wild bears and returns to challenge Lumpjaw. He manages to outwit Lumpjaw for most of their fight until the two fall into a river and go over a waterfall. While Lumpjaw is swept away, Bongo's hat saves him from falling down and he can finally claim Lulubelle as his mate.
