Depends which species you refer to. There are two. The American Black Bear (Ursus Americanus) & The Asiatic Black Bear (Ursus Thibetanus). The former ranges across North America from Alaska & Canada South to Mexico & Northern Florida, the latter across Asia. See links below for more details.

The American black bear is found only in North America. The population is estimated at 750,000. They live in forests as far south as Florida and northern Mexico and as far north as forests grow in Alaska and Canada. In northern Labrador, where grizzly bears no longer live, black bears range out onto open tundra where there are no trees to escape into. People are becoming more tolerant of black bears as we learn more about them. Many people are enjoying having bears live close to them where the bears were once feared and killed.

In a little house in the woods, where you'll find three bowls of porridge cooling down. The smaller bowl will probably be more to your tastes. A word of advice, don't take a nap on any of the beds.
