Thanks for that.
My experience is several encounters with black bears. They huff and bluff but when yelled at or pots are beaten, back off.
The Tennessee bears I encountered though wild, have experience with humans and just want the goodie in your pack

Most bears avoid humans. The few who decide to take on the humans should be taken out of the gene pool.
In short order, bears become respectful.
