A TEEN screamed “it’s eating me” as she was mauled alive by a raging bear while she was on the phone to her mum.
Olga Moskalyova, 19, called her mother as the horrific attack was unfolding, and gave her a heart-breaking, hour-long commentary.
The Russian teen was mauled to death by a brown bear and its three cubs, after the mother bear had already killed her stepfather.
Olga’s mum Tatiana recalled her daughter screaming down the phone: “Mum, the bear is eating me! Mum, it’s such agony. Mum, help!”
Tatiana said she first though her daughter was joking, retelling the heartbreak to the MailOnline: “But then I heard the real horror and pain in Olga’s voice, and the sounds of a bear growling and chewing.
“I could have died then and there from shock.”

At the time Tatiana had no idea the bear had already overpowered her husband, Igor Tsyganenkov, and killed him by breaking his neck and smashing his skull.
Olga had watched the attack unfold and tried to flee, until the mother bear grabbed her leg.
But the creature didn’t kill her instantly like her stepfather, it toyed with her – giving her time to phone her mother three times before she died.
Tatiana called the police and relatives in a nearby village, in the extreme east of Siberia, begging them to rush to the river where the pair had been fishing.
When Olga phoned her mother back the second time, she gasped: “Mum, the bears are back. She came back and brought her three babies.
“They’re… eating me.”
During the last call, and the final time Tatiana heard her daughter’s voice, Olga sensed her end was near.
Almost an hour after her first distressed call, Olga told her mother: “Mum, it’s not hurting any more. I don’t feel the pain.
“Forgive me for everything, I love you so much.”
The call was then cut off.
Half an hour later Igor’s brother and police arrived to find the mother bear still devouring his remains, and Olga’s lifeless body not far away.
While the horror unfolded in 2011, videos telling of the chilling case have resurfaced on Tiktok.
Not long after the attack, a weeping Tatiana paid tribute to her girl: “My daughter was such fun. She was so cheerful, friendly, and warm.”
She said the 19-year-old had her whole life ahead of her, adding: “She had graduated from music school, and just days before the bear attack she got her driving licence.”
