Jan. 01, 1966 - Bears still at large on the isle of Wight; Nikita and Valentina, two Russian bears have for 12 days evaded capture, after escaping from a children's zoo at Ryde, Isle of Wight. So far they have defied the efforts of assorted police, R.S.P.C.A. and zoo man to catch them. Yesterday, Mr. Harold Sister, the island's bear defying R.S.P.C.A. officer ventured into the woods at Priory Bay, tracked down the bears fed them with bananas and left more for them to eat later hoping to keep them in the some area until an expert from London Zoo arrives today and tries to knock them out with drugged darts so that they can be returned to captivity again. Photo Shows Mr. Harold Slater, lures the bears with bananas on the Isle of Wight
