Carl's Bear Caverns

A vast series of caves within a mountain located in Tucker Forest, Carl's Bear Caverns was once the place where Captain Juan Tumannie — a sea pirate of the Great War days — hid his incredible million-dollar fortune. A person who never trusted maps, Captain Tumannie entrusted the fortune to his parrot Ignatius (Ignatz for short), who memorized the treasure's exact location and essentially became a living, breathing treasure map.

Known to hate intruders, Tumannie installed countless boobytraps within Carl's Bear Caverns, most of them concentrated around the spot where the treasure was hidden. Falling stalactites and collapsing floors paled in comparison to Juan Tumannie's big trap, designed as a final measure against trespassers.

Unfortunately, while searching for the treasure with Don Karnage on their heels, Baloo, Kit, and Ignatz accidentally tripped the big trap, setting off a chain reaction of earthquakes which completely levelled Carl's Bear Caverns — and with it the million-dollar fortune. Ignatz the parrot, meanwhile, has come away from the disaster with a lucrative job at the Cape Suzette Museum of History, recounting Captain Juan Tumannie's fabulous exploits to crowds of museumgoers.
