The True Story of Smokey Bear
"Hot Foot
Teddy"
In the Spring of 1950, a fire raged out of control in the
Capitan Mountains of New Mexico. It was spotted by an operator manning one of
the fire towers located North of the Capitan Mountains who reported it to the nearest ranger station.

The first crew arriving discovered a major fire which was being swept along
the ground and driven by strong winds. As word of the fire spread, more and
more crews reported to help. Forest Rangers, army soldiers, men from the New
Mexico State Game Department, and civilian volunteers worked together to fight
this dangerous forest fire.
During
this time a little bear was seen wandering alone near the fire line. The
firefighters left him alone hoping his mother would find him.
This book chronicles the life of the little bear, called Smokey, and the program inspired by
him. It contains posters and images provided by the National Forest Service
and appendices with information on the Smokey Bear program.
It is a children's storybook, a teaching aid for adults
and children, and is a licensed product of the
US Forest Service.
Learn more about how Smokey was found; nursed back to health; and how he became
the spokesman for forest fire prevention. How he met Hopalong Cassidy;
inspired over six million children to become Junior Forest Rangers; met a
mate; and eventually retired.
Learn about Smokey's final days and his eventual resting place.
