Montana woman fights bear with courgette

A woman from the US state of Montana has fought off a 200lb (91kg) black bear with a courgette from her garden.

The bear attacked one of the woman's dogs on the back porch of her home late on Wednesday evening, Missoula County Sheriff's Lt Rich Maricelli said.

When the woman tried to stop the attack, the bear bit into her leg.

The woman, whom police have not named, grabbed the closest object - a courgette from her garden - and threw it at the bear, causing it to flee.

Mr Maricelli told the Associated Press news agency that the woman, who lives about 15 miles (24km) from the town of Missoula, had not sought medical attention.

Authorities were still attempting to track down the bear on Thursday.

Hee hee! I have many many stories about Montana women -- one should not trifle with them without considering the possibilities of a setback or two. Some of my stories involve the feminine members of my immediate family.

The lesson Mr. Bear learned has been learned by others, the hard way!

Who was that guy waxing on the .375 HH?

They never heard of courgette's efficacy against bears.


Tim, Would love to hear your yarns.

I hate eating that stuff and make a big noise when its cookede.Zuchinni, in the name of all thats indecent!
Mr.Bear must be smarting at the hammering.Was she a school marm? handling a birch like that needs experience-not to forget an icy cool head and something women have in surplus-courage.
As a 7 year old, i saw my mother fend off and flatten a dog which had come into the house and tried to attack me and my bbrother. had nightmares about it for a whileGiven the abnormal behaviour and the wild ferocity, it was later assumed it might have been rabid.No facilities for testing such silly things then.If something needed to be taken care of, it was done.
A woman's ferocity and unwavering focus is amazing.
Yup, am just another henpecked asian male , no. wife is NOt reading over my shoulder or, nonchalantly checking the mag capacity of the 9.3
