I dont know, but brown bears are no different than grizzlies
one time, years ago, my granddad made honey. a bear was in his bee hives, and my dad shot at it, and then climbed a tree till morning, because bears are smart and sneaky
he could have played dead until my dad came lookin for him and then got him
I used to live near the woods in PA when I was a kid. I used to come home from playing in the forest and my mom would have to pick tics out of my head.
