A lumbering black bear was no match for one gutsy woman in Colorado who took issue with the animal as it climbed from her garden onto the back deck.
After being alerted to the animal's presence by the person shooting video, the woman stomps toward the bear and shouts, "Get down. Right now!"
The bear obeyed and high-tailed off the property.
