This was a couple years back. 85 year old woman had been feeding the bears: https://www.inforum.com/news/accide...d-montana-woman-killed-rare-black-bear-attack
There was an article in the paper a few years back that talked about the Tahoe community and living with bear as the come closer and become more accustomed to people and living off garbage. One of the statistics they stated was that about 1/2 of the bear attacks in the US involved people feeding the Bears weather it be wild bear around their house or captive like in the zoo or as pets.
I like to joke black bear are like big chocolate labs because of their disposition. But, if you've ever raised a large dog (especially a food driven lab) you know how hard you have to work on training them not to jump up on you, especially well feeding or giving treats. This is where people go wrong with feeding bears. Its a wild animal that (around here) weighs 250-400 pounds. It may seem docile but it is food driven and the outcome of it "jumping up on you" even if it's not vicious by nature has devastating results!!
