People should be more cautious around wildlife in Alaska especially tourists that come into Seward via the cruise ships.  Bring a pistol with you if you want although please use firearms as a last resort make sure you have a cell phone with you at all times I've personally fed wild moose in alaskan woods and also been around wild bears with cubs without being attacked.  The key is to remain calm not make a whole bunch of noise just because you can animals in the wild have priority when you are in their domain respect them they will respect you
