1 person a year in the US dies from a bear attack per year on average while 300k
Or so die from insects (stings, tick and mosquito carried disease, spider bites) so that kind of tells you where the concerns are.

I’ve done extensive camping out in that area and have seen a few black bears from a distance.

Bureau of Labor Statistics

Fatal injuries and nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses involving insects, arachnids, and mites

Although not often associated with injuries and deaths at the workplace, insects, arachnids, and mites were involved in 83 fatal occupational injuries from 2003 to 2010. The majority of these workplace deaths were due to bee stings

Also if you are going on a horse ride it’s more dangerous than you might think. Leading cause of sports related brain injury.
