COOKE CITY, Mont. (AP) - A woman who was attacked by a bear at a Montana campground says she was bit on her arm and leg before she instinctively played dead so the animal would leave her alone.
At least one bear rampaged through a heavily occupied campground Wednesday near Yellowstone National Park in the middle of the night, killing one man and injuring Deb Freele of Ontario and another man.
Freele said on Thursday's network morning talk shows that she wants to thank the people in the next campground who helped rescue her after the bear left the area.
Freele is a frequent camper who says she's ready to go camping again despite the trauma.
Wildlife officials were trying to capture the bear late Wednesday.
