911 Audio: Man Mauled By Bear Escapes By Climbing Up a Tree
An Alaskan hiker was able to climb 30 feet up a tree and call 911 after being mauled by a brown bear. In the 911 audio, the hiker can be heard saying, “I’m bleeding bad … I can hear the brown bear. It’s still huffing in the trees. I was able to climb a tree, so I’m as high up in a tree as I can get … The damn thing was batting at me.”
