You couldn't make it up!
The clip was viewed by more than 1.3 million people within just five days of going on line.
In the footage, the bear can be seen walking across the garden, before making its way on to a porch. It is then that the animal is confronted by Nishanto Grillo shouting: “Get down right now! No! No! No! Down!”
The bear quickly turns tail, hurries down the stairs and makes good its escape across the lawn.
YouTube users have been posting comments about the woman ordering a massive bear off her property.
“Years of practice, that lady has obviously been married for years from the tone of her voice,” posted one.
