Mano-A-Muzzle

A tae kwon do instructor is nursing some broken ribs after going nose to nose with a black bear.

It was late Wednesday night when the 18-year-old heard something rustling in a shed on the farm where he lives, near Milaca, Minnesota

He investigated and heard some deep snorting before a figure came crawling out of the shadows. The next thing he knew, the figure had taken a swipe at his left leg, shredding his jeans from the pockets to his knee.

"I was thinking my leg's was going to be all torn out," he said.

Realizing it was a bear, his instincts kicked in and he utilized his training as a black-belt martial arts instructor.
