Because grizzly bears are significantly more powerful than black bears and can kill as easily by accident as by design, it was long assumed that these bears were less prone to hunt humans than are black bears.

Smith, however, says the data indicates the opposite.

“If we factor in that there are at least three times more black bears in Alaska than brown/grizzlies, we see that brown/grizzlies have actually had more than double the predacious events per 1,000 bears than black bears,’’
