There aren’t many animals that would willingly pick a fight with a bear, let alone win. However, one fearless feline in Canada did exactly that, sending a hulking black bear fleeing from a suburban back garden in a remarkable David versus Goliath battle. Footage filmed in the community of Quesnel shows the bear calmly wandering through the garden before being startled by a black-and-white cat. Without hesitation, the feisty feline charges straight at the much larger animal, chasing it across the lawn. Clearly deciding it wasn't worth the fight, the bear quickly scrambled over the back fence in a single leap before disappearing into the nearby forest. Black bears are a common sight in British Columbia, which is home to an estimated 120,000 to 160,000 of the animals, the largest population of any province or state in North America.
