Wikipedia mentions the poem without showing it. Anyway, here it is.

Churchill Bear Jail

One of your first major stops in Churchill is jail, bear jail

which makes you feel sad and odd

at the same time. Then this feeling turns to knowing

that bear jail is silly yet incredibly bizarre.

Bizarre seems the right word to describe Quonset

hut outside of town but there is more. Bears, you’re told,

are given jail time depending on their offense and how

many times they commit that offense or any other faux pas.

First offenders are hauled back to Churchill Cape with other

free bears but if they come back to raid

or to be caught again, they are given thirty days.

They are not fed while they are serving their time.

Thirty days in jail without a lawyer, without

a judge, without a jury, without bail, without

good time served, you realize. Then you think

of bizarre ways of breaking them out. No justice.

Yet you think what would happen if there were

a judge? “Thirty days,” he says. Bear, representing

himself, asks about his bear rights. Judge says

he should waive any rights because bear has none

anyway. The bear waves goodbye with perfect law/decorum

to be put in his cell till hell freezes over.
