If grizzly bear numbers were dwindling don't you think they would stop selling tags? The tag numbers are controlled so there is not a huge spike in numbers. If the number spikes they will eat themselves out of food and their prey numbers will drastically drop.
It's not like hunters are just shooting whatever they can. These guys are trophy hunters. They're going after big males. Big males will usually be older. Culling these off will give the younger smaller males a chance to repopulate, and leave extra food for the cubs.
