Russian woman in 'critical condition after bear attacked and buried her'

NoA woman is in a critical condition after being by a bear in Russia, according to local media reports.

Natalya Pasternak was so severely injured in the attack the bear thought she was dead and tried to bury her to protect its meal.

The Siberian Times reports that the mother of two was collecting wood near Tynda, in eastern Russia when the attack occurred.

Luckily a friend was with her and managed to escape the attack and raise the alarm. However when rescuers arrived the bear turned on them and had to be shot.

The rescue team then noticed a hand under some leaves and uncovered the woman who, despite severe injuries, was still conscious.
She is now believed to be in hospital and doctors have reportedly said her condition is "severe".
