Bears are some of the most beautiful woodland creatures imo.
I'd love to see one IRL not in a zoo.
Would probably shit my pants, but would love to see one off in the distance/across a river eating etc etc.
Go for a road trip to the Rocky Mountains. Jasper, Banff etc you will see them in the ditch quite a bit. Plenty of kickass wildlife out here.
Had one encounter on a fishing trip we went on a forestry trunk road way up in the mountains. Like 50 miles out of cell service, really deep. We encounter a fallen tree blocking the road. So we hook up a chain to it and the truck and move it off the road. The next corner we are face to face with three full grown wolves not even 10 feet ahead of us. Obviously we were safe in the truck and they bolted as soon as they saw us but it made the fishing trip a little sketchy once we got there.
