It’s not editorializing to say Richard Wesley is lucky to be alive and unharmed after being attacked by a black bear while hunting in northern Ontario, Canada.
The man was hunting near Fire River, Ontario recently, and Wesley recorded video during his Spring hunt of a confrontation with a black bear. The bear comes into the picture about 25 seconds into the video as the man raises his wooden bow.
The video of the attack is posted on Youtube.
“I am so happy after this confrontation with a black bear during our spring hunt. No wounds except a bruised elbow and ego where the bear threw me down,” Wesley wrote on YouTube. “Genuinely happy that this was a non fatal or tragic outcome.
“Proving that the black bear is a wild and unpredictable animal. Again so happy with the outcome.”
