Why do you think that? You don't want either type to be habituated to humans.

Cinnamon-blonde black bear, note the lack of claws. Live near the fun, and you have bears around, they live there. No big deal.

Its a game trail for sure. So far since I put up some cameras I have got white tails, Turkeys, Coyotes, racoons, bobcats, elk, moose, grizzly, black bear. Probably only animal that hasn't triggered the camera is cougar. But they're around. oh and wolves. Hear them sometimes never seen one

Black bear ; best to keep an eye on your trash unless you want them hanging around , and damaging your property .

No worries I've eaten a couple. I think it still might be spring bear season not sure. Heard a single shot a couple hours ago. Anyway black bears don't last long around here. Grizzlies are protected

Color looks Grizzlyish in that light, nose almost has me convinced it's a grizz, can't really tell by the claws, young Grizz don't have long claws. Not all older grizzlies have long claws either, they wear off. If it came to taking a shot, I'd want a better look. Prints might tell the tale.

The bear in the picture, from quite a few factors, is a black bear unfortunately. The neck, the hair, the claws, the shoulder, the shape of the head.
