Useful Info
Black bears are the weakest members of the bear family. They have surprisingly puny attacks and no defenses to speak of, but they will go berserk when seriously wounded or inflicted with fear. Even then, they pose a fairly small threat.

Tips & Tricks
Try to kill it quickly as soon as it goes berserk. Apart from that, any decent melee fighter can take one on toe-to-toe, while any school of magic can make short work of it. Just don't send your deep elf hedge wizard into melee with a berserk black bear.
History
Prior to 0.6, they could not go berserk.
