California black bear in Mammoth captured on video grabbing teen’s leg


A California teen, Kimberly Mendoza, had a scary encounter with a black bear while walking in the woods near Lake George in Mammoth with a friend. They attempted to retreat from the bear but were blocked by fallen tree branches. In a video captured by Mendoza, the bear can be seen approaching and pawing at the friend before eventually leaving after the friend swiped away the paw. The video has garnered over 4.4 million views on TikTok since it was posted in late July.

The National Parks Service advises that black bear attacks are rare, as bears that approach people are usually interested in protecting their food, cubs, or space. If one encounters a black bear, they should remain calm and speak in a low, controlled manner to avoid provoking the bear. If a black bear attacks, the NPS recommends fighting back instead of playing dead and seeking safety in a secure location as soon as possible. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding how to safely interact with wildlife and react in such situations.
