ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) – A woman in Southeast Alaska said she never imagined having an issue with bears while winter camping near Haines last weekend, until one bit her on her bottom.

Shannon Stevens was camping with her brother and his girlfriend at a yurt near Chilkat Lake on Saturday, when she left to use the outhouse after dinner.

“I went to the outhouse, sat on the toilet and immediately something bit me,” she said. “Honestly … it didn’t occur to me it would be a bear. I didn’t know what it was. I felt the pain and screamed.”

Shannon Stevens’ screams brought her brother, Erik Stevens, running to the outhouse to see what was wrong.

“I’m like, ‘I’m going to open the lid and see what’s down there,’” Shannon Stevens said. “So I grabbed my headlamp and I open the lid, and right there is a big bear face, just staring back at me.”

Bear says “That’s what the woods are for”.

Am I the only one who feels kind of sorry for the Bear?

Sorry, I'm not sure now which is the actual outhouse. Usually websites indicate when they're using "stock" photos from some archive.

In any case, here's another posted along with the story at another website...

I thought you couldn’t get that stuff from a toilet seat.

The location of these 2 outhouses is actually perfectly logical.
When you're done with the dump, dump it off the cliff. Better than burying it I guess. It's easier anyway. Just hope that no one lives below.

Are they sure the “bear” wasn’t Florida Man?

LOL, most people have a fear of rats, snakes, or bugs when they look into that dark hole.

(My sister in law had a hummingbird bang against her butt when she sat in an outhouse once!)

Now we got bears to worry about...:)

I have seen that last one dozens of times, and I still grin every single time...that would be me. I got a thing about spiders.

Even a bear in the woods has to have a place to read!
