Robert Biggs, 69 of Paradise, Calif., had a pretty wild encounter when he went out for a hike on Monday. Hiking near Whiskey Flats, Biggs stopped to watch a mother bear and her cub by a stream, but was jumped from behind by another animal when he turned to leave.

The California man wasn't attacked by a bear, but a mountain lion. Biggs said that the mountain lion jumped on his back, forcing him to fall to his knees. "He grabbed me from behind and knocked me to the ground," Biggs told the Huffington Post. "I was on my knees. I had my rock pick out because I was on a steep incline, and I smashed the cat in the head with it. He screamed , but didn't let go."

Fortunately for Biggs, the mother bear was only 40 feet away to help him. "That's when a blur on my left side grabbed the lion by its throat," said Biggs of the mother bear. "I heard tremendous screeching, some growling noises."

Lucky guy.

This is just the reason why we should all support the right to arm bears

lol, I bet the bear saved the mans life... His injurys were not consistant with a mountain lion attack and I doubt winni the poo came to the rescue nor does anyone else... But it sure would make a great disney movie

Now that needs some major regulations did you not see what happened to yogi the bear in jellystone park recently? VERY DISTURBING VIDEO. not for the faint of heart... His only crime was stealing a few pic-a-nic baskets and being smarter than the average bear.
