A Grizzly Bear is absolutely terrifying if you've seen one in the wild.
I was camping one autumn when I came across one lumbering down the hiking trail. They are absolutely monstrous. I literally was shaking in my boots. I KNEW that if it decided to get angry, I was DEAD. Those bears are scary as SHIT. Luckily it seemed to know that humans are just stupid ex-wildife and that it wasn't worth the effort to take me down. Or it just wasn't hungry.
I've never seen a lion in the wild, I've seen lions in the zoo, and I know that zoo animals are like shadows of wild animals, but a lion would have a very hard time doing anything to a Grizzly bear aside from making it angry.
A very good point was made earlier, Lions are pack hunters, a group of say, 3 male lions would probably take the Grizzly down, but it would be a good fight...
