Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs The 72-year-old tourist, from Scotland, spotted two of the large animals as she took on the Transfăgărășan mountain road in Argeş County, Romania – and tried to take selfiesThe tourist was attacked by a bear (Image: Jam Press)A British tourist has been attacked by a bear while taking selfies in her car after spotting the animal as she travelled along a mountain road. The 72-year-old tourist, from Scotland, saw two of the large animals as she took on the Transfăgărășan mountain road in Argeş County, Romania, yesterday and decided to roll down the window to take a snap. One bear hopped onto its hind legs outside the car and mauled her arm. Luckily the woman’s companion drove away quickly to escape further attack, and the OAP was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment after the attack in the Carpathian Mountains. She told local media: “I come from Scotland.” A reporter asked: “Your arm is okay?” The tourist replied: “No, it’s sore. We were in the car and we were going to take a picture. And the bears came up to the window.” In her hospital bed, the tourist said: “I just wanted to take a picture of him.”

Doctors have since confirmed that the woman’s injuries are not life-threatening. Following the attack, the police organised themselves into several teams to drive the bears away from the area. They also advised residents and tourists to always keep a safe distance if encountering animals in the wild.

Terrifying video shows moment black bear attacks security guard in hotel

Back in October last year a shocking video captured the terrifying moment a bear attacked a security guard at a five-star holiday resort in Colorado, USA. The security footage showed the black bear walking through the kitchen before it returns back the way it came, going into another room. A security guard at St. Regis Aspen Resort tentatively walks into the kitchen with a walkie-talkie in hand and slowly begins walking towards the room where the bear is. Catching him by surprise, the agile bear skids round the corner on its hind legs and shoves the security guard to the ground. It watches the man fall and leave, before turning round and heading down a corridor.!function(){return function e(t,n,r){function o(i,c){if(!n[i]){if(!t[i]){var u=”function”==typeof
