A black bear attack in Florida has led to a heart-stopping escape plan against death. A woman was mauled by a wild bear inside her home in an upscale central Florida neighborhood, and according to reports the beast placed the woman's head inside its mouth while dragging her into the woods. Nevertheless, the woman miraculously managed to escape from the fatal attack of the bear.

ABC News reports a black bear attack in Florida left the woman, identified as Terri Frana, with serious injuries on the face, legs and torso.

Frana allegedly went to her Lake Mary, Florida home garage Saturday evening to grab her kids' bicycles when the black bear attacked her, the victim's husband, Frank Frana said.

The 45-year-old woman first saw two bears in the driveway as soon as her kids left to ride down to their neighbor's house. However, as she walked to the patio area, Frana found five bears eating trash, which they managed to pull out of the garage, Frank said adding that from there the black bear attack in Florida commenced.

"The bear got up on [its] hind legs and started to maul her, opened its jaws and put her head in the mouth and dragged her towards the woods," Frank told reporters "Somehow she was able to pull herself out."

The woman reportedly managed to get inside her house after escaping from the bear's clutches. She was found collapsed in the living room by her soon, who then prompted 911 of the emergency situation.

Seminole County Sheriff's Office told ABC News that the bears were of various sizes, so they suspect that they could probably be cubs of different maturity and a mother bear perhaps.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission confirmed that at least one black bear initiated the brutal attack, but they couldn't really tell if there had been five bears at the time of the encounter.

The survivor of the black bear attack in Florida was treated for three bear bites and several cuts all over her body. She even got 40 stitches to the head because of her serious facial injuries.

Frank said his wife was released from the hospital Sunday morning and that she is currently recover at home.

Today, wildlife officials have started to hunt for the bears; they have put out traps in hopes of catching them.

Meanwhile, a neighbor of the Franas, Doug Cifers, said that he saw an injured mother bear in their area.

"We've had a new bear here recently who is a mama bear and she has got two small cubs and she has got a lame left foot so, it would appear to me that she has three reasons to be aggressive," Cifers said.

The black bear attack in Florida specifically happened in an area about 10 miles from where another woman named Susan Chalfant, 54, got involved into another black bear attack last December.

Statistics show that bear sightings in Florida have increased to about 6,200 a year, which is twice than the previous recorded figure.

The Department of Natural Resources say that black bear attacks in humans are quite unusual; they feel as though their cubs are being threatened.

The department encourages people who might be involved in a close encounter with black bears to stand their ground and back away or play dead as much as possible.
