A bear that tried to attack a herd of cattle in central Turkey's Ankara province was chased away by the shepherd's dog.

Shepherd Burhan Gümüşay was able to film the incident which happened in the province's Kızılcahamam district late Wednesday.

According to Gümüşay, when the bear attacked his grazing cattle, his three dogs that guarded it quickly ran toward the predator.

"Thankfully, the bear left without hurting me and our animals," he added.
