The footage shows a woman being chased in an alleyway in front her house by bears. However, she manages to escape at the very last moment.

The unnamed woman can be seen walking through a gate connecting her home and the alley in front of it, and then walking away in the same direction as the bears.

Nevertheless, she is seen sprinting back to the gate a few seconds later and quickly returning inside.

The mother bear can be seen returning to shot with her cub. The mother bear gets up on her hind legs, placing her frontpaws on the fence of the woman before taking a look at it and sniffing out the air.

Despite the fence creaking slightly under the mother bear’s weight she doesn’t attempt to lower it and seems to think that the woman is too trouble than she is worth.

After waiting for a few seconds the mother bear and her cub left.

 Since this July town and city authorities have been allowed to shoot bears that break into people’s houses, even though brown bears are protected animals.

Bears in the country often enter homes, attack livestock and hit cars, and they also attack people and their pets.
