John, I never said brown bears could be black. Don't know how you figured that one.
Gunnen, I'll concede to the brown bear in NJ. I only went what I was told by (I say this lightly) "officials" in state parks. I'm too lazy to look up the info. I was under the impression there is a species of brown bear that is small and not as aggressive as those out west. I have seen black bears here on plenty of occasion, mostly upstate. We used to install electric fencing to keep them off large estates.
