Hi Connie!
I think your sources were referring to black bears, which seldom growl or roar. Grizzlies do it a lot! They can also make an appalling noise that sounds just like a person in the last stages of being tortured to death. This is most likely if the bear is really frustrated over something. Several of my links have recorded grizzly growls, a sound that seems to just drip with menace and murder.
Have you heard any other sounds?

P.S. Cubs seem to be the noisiest by far!
