Just a note, it appears this was conducted in the UK which doesn't have a bear population, and barely has a raccoon population.

Most states in the US have no bears. Even California, which has a Grizzly on their state flag, has the joke "There is one more bear on the state flag that there is in the state of California"

The joke is specifically about Grizzly/brown bears. There are definitely black bears in California.

Yeah, I've only had to interact with bears in Alaska thus far thankfully.
