It's an oft repeated "axiom" that black bear are less dangerous than grizzlies. I like to stomp that one out wherever I see it.

1. you are wrong - I am not a LEO in any way. I am a research scientist in Biology, and a former professor. I studied mammals and taught courses in Mammalogy and Behavior among other things.
2. It is oft-repeated b/c it is correct. You again,m are dead wrong on this. Grizzlies are much more dangerous than Black Bears. I appreciate your (overwrought) concern for the safety of others and agree that people should not antagonize wildlife, even if it appears harmless (say, deer) or is less dangerous than other wildlife.
