Yup! There's some things that are best left alone. I had a big grizzly pace me from across the Madison by Slide Inn one day in April. I'm sure if he really wanted to he could of crossed over and caught me before I could of got to my truck. Just seemed curious as to what I was doing. Fortunately it wasn't a female with cubs!
Backpacking would still be doable but you would need to keep your eyes open. I have backpacked in Yellowstone and have not seen a grizzly but did have our camp on Slough Creek destroyed by one while we were out fishing and hiking. We packed up what was left of our stuff and hiked out. All the food was hung and untouched but the tents and everything in them was wrecked. One guy was reading Seabiscuit and there was a canine tooth hole almost all the way through it. That was not the only camp that bear had jumped and it was later relocated. I assume he did not like humans in his territory.
What humans, and the planet need most....is a good alpha predator..........we would be more fit...and humble.

They have goats along the American river cleaning up vegetation, I imagine a Grizz would work wonders on the homeless encampments.

Grizzly bears are scary and kill thousands of people a year, best to avoid ID/WY/MT.

I'm sure it's pure hyperbole. When I used to surf around the San Francisco/Santa Cruz area, we often perpetuated the myth that tons of surfers we killed every year by sharks. We did it to keep the surfers from down south from overcrowding "our" water. Sounds like the same tactic to me.
