A visitor to Banff National Park gathered with other people to look at a Grizzly Bear. Then she walked up close to the bear to get a picture.
She was lucky, nothing happened. However Grizzly Bears are unpredictable and he could just as easily have attacked her.
It wouldn't have ended well.

Tourists do ridiculous things with bears and other animals. If they put their own lives at risk and end up in trouble we know they brought it on themselves. However if a bear or other animal attacks a human it usually ends up being shot.

So the real reason to be angry at this person is the fact that she endangered the life of a bear. She will end up getting herself hurt some other way, but there was no justification for putting the bear at risk.
