Another Big Adventure Video

This is a newly released video of Wildthang, Wizzer, Chewie, Sonny, Little Girl & Rickietickietavi's Big Adventure in September 2006. Doug built them a nice little Mini-Coondo in a really gnarly old woodpecker tree. The orphans loved the new playground, and didn't want to go back to the Coondo. They didn't stay in the Mini-Coondo, and only came back to eat from time to time. Every now and then you could see a muddy paw print in one of the white buckets. But never a glimpse of the beautiful orphans again.

Obituary

FallingBear Stuffie, born Very Large Teddy in some carnival or store many years ago, passed away Monday night while serving in his chosen vocation, rehabbing young raccoons.

Large Teddy must have been loved by children somewhere along the way, but came to his true lifes'work after retirement from human duty some three years ago when he was introduced to the care of orphan raccoons. His name was changed to Falling Bear in honor of his unflagging devotion to the small furbutts who all grew to love him. He stood sentry for the little ones, prepared to lay himself down in the path of danger for them, primarily serving to cushion falls from peeking-out ledges and ceilings of enclosures. Year after year he offered silent support to his numerous charges, preparing them for their Great Adventures. One or more from each litter took special note of FallingBear and he was literally loved to death as a surrogate mommynest, a learning toy, and buffer against a bigger world.

FallingBear is survived by the Menards babies, the Monster brothers, a special friend Kudos, his many Coondo graduates, and his long time friend and mentor, Matzo.

Visitation for Falling Bear Stuffie was held at the Coondo this afternoon with internment in the Coleman landfill memorial garden on Wednesday. Donations may be made at www.doryandtheorphans.com in lieu of flowers.
