Four-legged Predators

The world is not a safe place.

What would you do if you were attacked by a bear in your home? Bear shot after breaking into El Dorado County home.

A spokesperson for the El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office said they received a call about the bear encounter around 10:30 p.m. on Thursday. The caller said they were attacked by a bear in their home and that they had shot the bear in self-defense.

At least he had the means of self-defense.

Then there is the hazzard of rabid animals. Man ‘lucky to be alive’ after rare bobcat attack.

He was attacked while unloading groceries from his car. He was able to get away from the cat, and get into the house.

However, later that day, a homeowner shot and killed a bobcat a few miles away, and that bobcat tested positive for rabies. The Jacksons believe it was the same bobcat. Officials couldn’t confirm the two incidents were related, but do believe the bobcat that attacked Jackson was rabid.

He didn't have access to the means of defense. But it is good that someone did.
