Lucknow bear takes off for unplanned holiday Travellers on Huron County Road # 1 reported seeing a bear hitch- hiking south on Saturday night. When questioned as to his destination he replied that he was taking an unscheduled holiday from the Mayfair Restaurant, Lucknow. Rumor has it that the bear; whose name is unknown, but who is affectionately called "Teddy", was unhappy with the winter hibernation syndrome. He apparently thought a few days in a warmer climate in the south was just what the "manager" would order. "Teddy" said he would make regular weather reports, via bear paw transmissions, as he makes his way south. He wanted everyone to know he is safe and in good shape, saying, "Not to worry."
