14 people have been killed in attacks by black bears in North America since 2000, including two in Tennessee in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the Cherokee National Forest...another 10 people were killed by grizzlies during the period, mostly in Alaska and Canada.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

He forgot to mention the 12 year old who was pulled from his tent and mauled to death within biking distance of American Fork, Utah ( a major population center in the Provo area).

Bears were **deliberately** introduced into this section of the Wasatch Front of Utah. This mountain front is bounded on both sides by major population centers ( Provo, Salt Lake City, Heber Valley, and Park City) and averages a mere 5 miles wide.

Scratch an environmentalist and under his thin skin is a Marxist who hates people.

We have had maulings and attacks here in Anchorage. The Muni closed a popular trail system because of the ‘bear danger’

I’m am an old fashoded kind of guy, I pay taxes to live in a cipy, not a freaking wildlife park. The State refuses to hunt down and kill bears living the city parks for Pete’s dake.

Pretty soon, we may see folks taking care of business by thier own bad sleves....
