I guess that's to be expected when lives within a wild life sanctuary !!
I live in an area with black bears, would I be surprised if I was attacked by one? No, I moved into their territory, so I show caution and respect.

What a beuatiful animal! They should probably try to stay away from wild animals. We had a guy here who was pissed off that there wasn't a sign to warn him that his obnoxious dog could be hurt by a wolf in the wilderness. It's not as though he didn't KNOW there was a wolf there when he took the dog for a walk in the wilderness, he just thought if a wild wolf in the wilderness was dangerous, well, he shoulda been warned.
WARNING: wild animals are dangerous, especially to anyone smaller than they are.

Lack of respect and commonsense can be a deadly combination.
Noted with thanks Cher

What do these people expect? The bear was defending his/her territory. What business did they have to be there in the first place?
