Grizzly Bear Attacks in the USA Risk Calculator
Grizzly bear attacks in the USA are rare but can lead to serious injury or death, primarily in areas with grizzly populations like Alaska and national parks in the lower 48 states. This calculator estimates your chances of encountering a grizzly bear, being injured in an attack, and being killed, based on exposure, location, activity, season, and precautionary measures. The purpose is to help you understand and mitigate risks while in bear country.
