Taking Yellowstone for example For all park visitors combined, the chances of being injured by a grizzly bear are approximately 1 in 2.7 million visits. So very good odds.

Surely being in a very populated area of the park lessens the chance greatly. Which would mean 1 in 2.7 million visits isn't accurate for what they would be doing.
I'd guess it raises the odds. You don't want them used to people. Especially not associating people with the presence of food.
