    Bears do not want to kill you. They want to be left alone. You’re hinging this on proximity but a bear won’t approach you and a person will. People don’t magically teleport next to a bear den, hence why the average is about 1 death nationwide annually.

    Ultimately, none of this matters though. It’s not about the actual risk assessment. And every comment we get bogged down with in that debate is a distraction from the thrust of the meme.

      Please show where I stated anything of the desires of the bear. I’m hinging nothing on proximity. You are simply assuming things I did not state. I covered that it wasn’t a risk assessment. Only thing bogged down is so bogged with your assumptions.
