This is incredible. Yet not surprising.
“Momma Bears” of all species will do anything to protect their babies.
Watch as a woman in California pushes a brown bear (who has cubs with her) off her fence to save her pups:
More details about this incident from Fox News:
“In the video, a bear can be seen climbing over a fence into the house’s garden. Several cubs also appear to be with the larger animal, suggesting that it’s a mother bear. Multiple dogs appear and start barking at the bear. One of the larger dogs runs up to the bear and is struck in the face several times by the larger animal.
According to a comment by Brenda, the dog was fine although it did suffer from some scratches.
Then, Hailey comes running into the frame and pushes the bear off the fence. While the bear quickly climbed back onto the fence, this gave Hailey enough time to gather the dogs and get them out of the area.
In a later video, Hailey explains that she lives in the mountains and since it is summer, bears aren’t an uncommon sight. According to Hailey, she suffered a sprained finger from the encounter.”
Great job Hailey!

I see the video has been removed. Let’s try this one:

DCG, I replaced the removed video in your post with the substitute you found. 🙂
Thanks!
Hailey Morinico is a girl! Only 17 years old, and so brave. What an impressive gal.
wow, now that’s a doggie momma with guts. Good for her!
I love this brave young woman. What a hero! Just watching this film snippet gave me a feeling of hope and joy. Congratulations to such a wonderful young woman.
Her Momma Instinct has kicked in early-she’s a Tiger!
We saw this on our local news and were astonished! We’ve had Mountain Lions and Bob Cats in our back yard, but never yet a Bear (with CUBS) yet…..very impressive dog rescue by this young & fearless doggie momma…..LIVE OUT LOUD!
Thank you DCG for this inspiring post. What a brave girl to protect her little dogs. She did what had to be done without hesitation.
