    Its rare. I've read about predatory black bears a few years back. There was one that "hunted" fishermen. He was killed after he had attacked & partially eaten 3 fishermen (I can't recall the state).

    I can't recall the title, but I'll keep my eye out for the book ("Bear Attacks"?). Its a very interesting read.
