Pile,
I can only tell you that every year we have knuckleheads shooting up the local bears and leaving them for us to deal with. Wounded bears are no fun when you have kids and a life to live after the knucklehead in question goes back to the suburbs in the lower 48 with his hairy-chested bear tale.
When we do get an actual mauling (and the animal is found and killed) it invariably has bullet wounds in it from one of these knuckleheads. Healthy bears rarely maul people. Shot up bears do frequently. Please don't shoot the bears unless you have a good reason to do so.
