Bear Saves Man From Mountain Lion Attack In California

Robert Biggs, 69, of Paradise California was taking his daily hike, he came across a familiar black bear mother with her two cubs.

When he turned from the family of bears  a mountain lion pounced on his back. He hit the cat with a rock pick, but it only grew mad. Biggs was pinned by the puma when all of a sudden a huge blur of force and speed flew past his left shoulder and knocked the cat off of him.

He heard growls and shrieks, and when he got to his feet, he saw the cat far off and the mother bear regrouping with her cubs.
