It is a pretty well known "bad idea" to desensitize any potentially dangerous wild creature to human presence. Your situation may be unique, and there have been many research scientists who have broken the rules in the name of scientific research, but it almost always ends bad for the wild critter, and often ends bad for a human or two in the process.
This is not my opinion. It is pretty much The Law unless otherwise permitted through special licenses. And for good reason.
