Suppose that you assume I(I have no idea of what the real number is) that
only 1 of every 100 bears is aggressive and will attack.  Your 100th bear
could be the first one you encounter or the 1000th.  Also, you will never
know until the attack starts.

Remember the recent idiot who said that all the brown bears in Alaska were
friendly, if you treated them nicely.  What happened to him?
