Well, this is terrifying.
A couple in Wisconsin were just chilling in their homes when a flipping bear broke through a window and waltzed right into their house.
A Wisconsin couple fought for their lives after a bear forced its way into their home and attacked, police told news outlets.
It happened at a home near Medford on Friday, May 20, the Taylor County Sheriff's Office told TV station WSAW. It was around 11 p.m., the husband and wife told deputies, and their children were asleep in bed.
Outside, the couple noticed a bear was eating from a bird feeder. They yelled at the bear, expecting it to go away, WQOW reported. Instead, it turned and charged at them, crashing through a window and into the home.
It's 11 o'clock. You're winding down for bed and you see a bear messing around in your backyard.
They holler at the bear, because that's what makes sense. You yell, bear runs away.
But not this time.
This bear said, "Forget birdseed, I see a much tastier item on my menu!"
Fortunately, this happened in Wisconsin where people know how to protect themselves.
Forced to defend themselves, the couple grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed the bear, WAOW reported. The husband retrieved a gun and fatally shot the animal.
Deputies said the man and woman both suffered bites and other injuries, but they were quickly released from the hospital, according to the station.
They're fighting this bear with a kitchen knife!
Don't you dare mess around with these parents while they're protecting their sleeping babies!
Thank goodness for the right to bear arms to protect from bear harm!
The bear was an adult female, probably a mother, as at least one cub was seen running away as the bear rushed toward the couple, outlets reported.
The state Department of Natural Resources took the bear's remains for testing.
This is a very scary story. My plan to stay away from bears was to stay inside the house.
But if your own house isn't bear-proof, is any place truly safe?
