U.S.A. – In Italy, Andrea Papi, a young man running for exercise, was killed by an aggressive European brown bear. European brown bears are essentially the same species as American grizzly/brown bears. From Nature World News:
Fear and rage spread throughout the area after Andrea Papi was fatally attacked by the aggressive bear while jogging above the town of Caldes in the Brenta Dolomites on the slopes of Mt. Peller. Papi is the first Italian reported to have died in the last few years at the hands of a bear.
In Italy, bears are a protected species, and since they were reintroduced to the area two decades ago, their population has been growing recently.

JJ4’s biological parents had been transported from Slovenia to northern Italy as part of the “Life Ursus” European conservation project. On Mount Peller in 2020, it had already attacked and hurt a father and son who were hiking.
For most of the history of homo sapiens, bears have been known to be dangerous. There are accounts of problems with bears in the Old Testament. Bears, especially brown/grizzly bears, have been a danger to humans and their food supplies in Eurasia throughout recorded history. The Eurasian brown/grizzly bears are a relatively recent immigrant to North America south of Canada, appearing somewhat after early human immigrants to the same area about 15,000 – 16,000 years ago.
