I have never heard of this one, I must hunt it down for a watch

It’s one of Disney’s little known films from the 1970”s, probably not to everybody’s taste. However, I enjoyed the amazing scenic shots, cute bear cubs and Chief Dan’s George’s performance a lot. I really encourage you to watch the 90-minute version of the film if you can.
