CRAZY BEAR

A term used for a supposed wildman by Native Americans, according to a diary article published in 1888.  The specimen was not unique.  It lived in a cave in Tennessee.  It had been left there by what the Indians referred to as "skymen" who had apparently come in "moons".  The story was passed on by the grandson of the diarist.
