A California man said he was attacked by a mountain lion while out hiking and he was rescued by a mother bear. Robert Biggs, 69, of Paradise said he went out hiking and gold panning Monday morning near Whiskey Flats, and stopped to watch a mother bear with a yearling and a cub sitting on a stream bank, ABC News reported Friday. Biggs said he was turning to leave when a mountain lion jumped onto his back. He said he hit the lion on the head with a rock pick and he turned to see the mother bear grab the mountain lion by the neck and throw it to the ground. The hiker, who suffered a wound to his arm, said the lion fled after a brief struggle. \"I think the lion was stalking the bear\'s cub and I got in the way,\" Biggs said. \"The bear walked calmly back to her cub after, and I wrapped my arm up with a T-shirt and went gold panning before I went home.\"
