Grizzly Bear Attacks

Grizzly bears have been long considered the most dangerous animal in North America. These bears usually avoid human contact and will not attack unless startled with young or engrossed in search for food. We must not underestimate their unpredictable temperaments and often exhibit reckless and petulant behavior.

Only a few people have died from grizzly bear attacks this past year. There has been increase in attacks in Alaska in the past year many of them haven't been fatal but very close. This could be because of a food shortage or having a close encounter with humans.
