Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt's Mississippi hunt during which he declined to shoot an adult bear that had been brutalized by dogs and man. He ordered a member of the hunt party to kill it, which was done by knife; it was then skinned and eaten at camp meals. Despite this outcome, the myth arose that the president released a young bear on humanitarian grounds resulting in the creation of a soft cloth child's toy that became known as the teddy bear in reference to the president's public moniker.
