Grizzly Vs. Gorilla

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQu5YnZ6b8E

I am more afraid of bears than any other animal, at least in North America.  In North America, I'm not likely to run into a komodo dragon.  

If you act passive and don't make eye contact with a gorilla, it is unlikely to attack you.

A former coworker was hiking in Yellowstone National Park when a bear followed him on the trail.  He got off the trail and the bear continued on.

My late stepdad co-owned a small farm with some friends.  They would mostly use it for get togethers.   It was very close to Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge where a bear had been spotted.  Bears are rare in Indiana, but this particular bear had been spotted multiple times, first swimming the Ohio River from Kentucky to Indiana.  It covered much ground because it had been spotted in multiple places, including Salem, Indiana where I was born.  It would have had to cross highways to cover this much ground.
