Not too common these days

Despite the awe-inspiring nature of bears and the potential risks associated with encountering them in the wild, bear attacks are indeed rare. The odds of being involved in a bear attack are relatively low, with statistics suggesting that the risk is around one in 2.1 million. This means that everyday activities and various other situations often present greater and more common risks to individuals.

However, specific activities, like bow-hunting in Montana’s mountains or backpacking in Yellowstone, can substantially elevate the chances of a lethal confrontation.” This information underscores the importance of awareness and preparedness in bear territories.
