Good luck coongitter, I cut them up pretty much like a deer, except i like to leave the back straps attached to the rib & spine and cut them into pork chops. Bear ribs aren't as tallowy as White-Tail. The main difference between deer and Black Bear is you have to take care of bear meat quicker, it won't keep as long, I would get ice in the cavity right away if you can, and get them quartered asap. Black bear is delicious if butchered properly.
