The owner said the bear jumped on her and threw her on the floor.

Florida Fish and Wildlife officers found the bear in a tree nearby along with her three cubs.

The mother bear who was responsible for the attack had to be put down. Her three yearlings, at least 100 pounds each, were deemed old enough to survive on their own and let go.
