Default Does lots of bear mean few deer and vice versa?

I hunt in WV and Va and itseems like the areas that are good for bear hunting are not good for deer. On the flipside, areas that are good for deer don't seem to have many deer. Bear are typically found in the higher mountains in these areas but these areas have relatively few deer. the majority of deer are found in the lower mountain areas where there are few deer. Is this typical of all areas? Has anybody found this same trend? Is it solely a terrain thing or do bear tend to run out other larger animals from their area?
