Well, yeah--which is why I've always been very careful when following up a hit bear of any kind. But also haven't hunted them with dogs, which no doubt increases the adrenaline level of the bear, as well as decreasing the range of a charge.
That still doesn't mean black bears are anywhere near as dangerous as lions--or cost as much to hunt, either in stress or dollars.
