The Tiny Lady Who Beat Up a 700 Pound Polar Bear

from An Ounce - For Your Consideration · host Jim Fugate

What do you think? If you put a five-foot nothin’, less than 100 lb. woman armed with only her bare hands, up against a full-grown, 700 pound hungry polar bear, who would win the fight? If one were to match any human up against a polar bear, the human would have little to no chance of surviving. Unless the human has a high-powered rifle, a sufficient amount of ammo, and can hit what they are aiming at. It did not turn out as expected when one polar bear made a bad choice and skulked into a little village in the northernmost region of North America. It was looking for a snack, maybe? Then, It began sizing up a 7-year-old boy. But when the 7-year-old's mom noticed the bear - and it was on.  https://www.espn.com/outdoors/general/news/story?id=2338668 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/mother-fights-off-polar-bear-to-save-children-1.625164 https://nunatsiaq.com/stories/article/polar_bear_no_match_for_fearsome_mother_in_ivujivik1/
