 An Asheville woman is still in disbelief after being charged at by a black bear in her backyard this week. The incident, which was caught on camera, occurred when Audrey Thompson opened the door to play with her service dog in the backyard. They were unharmed. Thompson says, Don't mess with the bears. You leave them alone. You can admire them, but respect them. Back away. But people don't do that, and that scares me.
