That Ol’ Bear

This one bear ate a carp and swallowed it whole like a cat or a snake will do a mouse. He saw a hunter man and tried to explain his folly by growling lowly and tilting his head side to side bobbleheadedly as if to say,
“Its so bony and not as good as a salmon.”
The man didn’t understand and shot the bear in the shoulder.
The bear growled, “Ouch” and was shot again.
“Ouch”, he growled again.
The bear’s name was Charles. And the hunter’s name was Charles, also.
Coinkydink? Doesn’t matter because a vampire in a bear costume overtook Charles the hunter, sucked him dry, and threw his carcass into the river where it was mistaken as a carp by another bear whose name was Jeff.
Jeff the bear was shot by Jeff the hunter who was drained by the vampire and this deja vu of sorts repeated again and again until the cycle had finished the circle of common names.
