When Wildlife Attacks - a cautionary tale

I hope my story can be a warning to those of you who might get too close to wildlife to get that perfect selfie.

We were just outside the Great Smoky Mountains National Park when I had this encounter.  I thought I had the perfect shot. Bad move.

This experience can serve as a "safety moment" for others.

I'm fine. It wasn't nearly as bad as the video makes it look.  Parents may want to preview this video before showing children.
