Why is it hard to kill a bear?
For the most part, any of the big bears, including the Haida Gwaii black bears (the largest of the N American black bears), grizzlies, and coastal browns are rightly considered dangerous big game.

Who would win a bear or a wolf?
The grizzlies are more powerful, but the wolves are quicker and out-number the bear, says Smith. “It’s almost like the wolves are the mosquitoes buzzing around the bear’s head,” Smith says. “Although individual mosquitoes can’t overpower you, if there are enough of them, they’ll win.
Can a bear kill a lion?
A grizzly bear would absolutely destroy an african lion. A Lion’s 600 pound per square inch (psi) bite force isn’t much compared to a bear’s 1160.
