A B.C. woman is reminding people to always keep an eye on their surroundings after a too-close-for-comfort wildlife encounter.
Melanie Porter was sitting in her back yard in Quesnel on Thursday browsing TikTok when she saw movement out of the corner of her eye.
What she thought at first was been a cat turned out, in fact, to be a bear.
"It was just so surreal. I'm not an outdoorsy kind of girl, never been around any bears," she said.
"It was just sheer panic, so I froze. It was like an adrenaline rush, holy Hannah what do I do."
As Porter froze, the bear approached her from the side. It then did something she said she'll never forget.
