In NY Adirondacks, young woman fights off bear with a pocket knife

YIKES! Some neat pictures with the article.

Three bears and one tough hiker. Woman stabs bruin in jaw as it charges her

Anyone considering messing with Amy Stafford should keep this in mind: she stabbed a bear, and walked away without a scratch.

Although it is bear hunting season in the Adirondacks, Stafford, 22, and an Army Reservist, didn't set out to tussle with one. It was a case of self defense.

"I'm 5-foot-8 inches" and I can handle myself, but I wasn't looking to fight a bear," she said.

Yes, she certainly can handle situations.
