A visitor to Great Smokey Mountain Park was caught on camera approaching several black bear cubs and getting charged at by the mother bear.

Paige Marple, who witnessed the tense encounter at Cades Cove on Saturday, July 13, told 10News, “I honestly thought we were going to sit there and just watch him get mauled.”
