Sounds more like "threatened production" than people.
I have "had an experience" of being "zooified" temporarily. Something I severely resent.
No. I'm afraid you might not be adequately educated on wildlife. Many modern people are not (thus the more frequent cougar attacks and incidents like tourists trying to take selfies with large carnivores).
I'm sorry you had a bad experience but rehabilitation zoos exist because of people who care about wild animals. Animals would be killed or suffer greatly if it were not for these centers. Some even bring back species from the brink of threat or extinction.
Grizzly bears are extraordinarily dangerous creatures. They are beautiful and should be protected but yes they do eat people. This is unfortunately due to habituation from ignorant campers and other tourists who leave food or other smelly products lying out (even hand lotion) or who otherwise venture too close to wildlife. Habituation is a problem and Id rather see a grizzly in the Big Bear rehab center than shot by a park ranger. You can't just not do anything about it.
