Braving the backcountry backfired on a woman in Alaska when she was attacked by a bear while using an outhouse!
Shannon Stevens was staying at her brother’s yurt in the Alaskan wilderness when she made her way to the resident outhouse. The experience quickly turned from relief to panic when a bear lunged up from below and bit her the backside before she even had a chance to sit down fully. She immediately jumped up, screamed, and got the heck out of there.
Hearing screams from the outhouse, Steven’s brother, Erik, rushed down to check on her, assuming a squirrel or a mink had bitten her. Instead, he found her tending to a bear bite, and the duo rushed back to the safety of the yurt.
