Solution

Little Cyclone was a grizzly cub from Alaska, who earned his name by the vigour of his resistance to ill-treatment. When his mother was fired at, they ran away as fast as their stumpy legs could carry them. The next day at sunrise the two orphans found themselves at the rough grasp of human hands. One of them escaped after a fierce and terrible fight, So the captor let him go. But the other cub was seized and taken to the Zoological Park at New York. The Zoological Park had Bears’ Nursery. Usually, a newcomer is badly scared on his first day but grizzly bears are different When the box was opened he stood up with courage and walked stiffly with pride to the center of the stage, halted, and calmly looked about him. Cyclone courageously met every attack real or faked. In less than an hour, all the other bears understood that Cyclone could strike quick and hard and fight any other bear on three seconds notice. From then on Little Cyclone's position was assured with respect and dignity.
