Gentle Ben

The Gentle Ben TV show was a 30 minute family drama series about a young boy (Mark Wedloe) who came across a bear cub while walking through the forest. When its mother suddenly appeared, she wasn't very happy about the human visitor and chased Mark up a tree. A hunter then happened along and shot the mother, leaving the poor bear cub an orphan and threatening to kill him too! Many months later and against many objections, Mark managed to convince his father to let him make a pet of the docile bear who had grown to a whopping 650 pounds! The rest of the series centered around the love that "Gentle Ben" and Mark shared and the threat from the hunter who still wanted him dead!
