I was in Yellowstone late last July, right after this happened. Trying to set up a backcountry itinerary with the rangers, I was really surprised about all the closed areas and precautions regarding grizzly country, beyond the standard bear country protocols I am familiar with.

Black bears actually target humans as food more than grizzlies do. Grizzlies are just more efficient and much more feared killing machines.Take note of this link on fatal North American attacks. Though the list lacks some of Yellowstone's recent attacks, it illustrates that black bears are no slouches when it comes to numbers of fatal attacks.
